In Bresse-sur-Grosne, in Saône-et-Loire, this château combines a medieval core, a keep and a 12th-century chapel, with 19th-century additions in a neo-Renaissance style. Its present shape, with two wings set around a park, dates from a restoration carried out in 1870 by the architect Sanson. The estate also retains former wine-related outbuildings, an orangery, an ice house and a dovecote, remnants of an old farming operation.
