To make a day of it
Château de Chabreuges stands in Saint-Laurent-Chabreuges (Haute-Loire), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 14th century, 15th century, fourth quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Built at the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries, Chabreuges castle consists of a quadrangular enclosure defended by four corner towers and flanked by two circular towers. Its medieval architecture was substantially enriched in the late 19th century during a major restoration campaign that added new buildings, a terrace, and outbuildings. The interior of both the castle and its chapel retain elaborate 19th-century decoration: stencilled paintings, wallpapers, and fireplaces.
