Boutissaint

To make a day of it

Château de Boutissaint stands in Yonne. Adult admission costs 12 EUR. Its opening hours and prices were verified at the source on August 31, 2026.

The château de Boutissaint stands at Treigny, in the Yonne département, in the heart of the Puisaye region, on a site that once held a medieval priory later reduced to a simple ecclesiastical benefice and turned into a private residence in the 16th century. The place is best known for its 400-hectare wildlife park, the first of its kind created in France in 1968, where animals roam freely for visitors to observe. A visit therefore combines a modest historic building, an old spring known as the fontaine de Sainte-Langueur, and a large open-range park.
