Clermont castle stands in Haute-Savoie, above the village of the same name, on the site of a former comital fortress. Built at the end of the 16th century by a wealthy bishop, Gallois de Regard, it follows lines inspired by the Italian Renaissance, with an inner courtyard lined with arcaded galleries. Visitors find a main building flanked by two pavilions, a monumental gate facing the village, and interiors that have kept their original character.

What to know
- The castle is open to visitors from 1 April to 31 October, with exhibitions and guided tours.
- The façades, roofs, courtyard and its galleries have been listed as a historic monument since 1950, while the interiors were registered in 1988.
- The site sits on a hillside, on the slope of a former rocky ridge, so reaching it involves some walking uphill.
- The castle has belonged to the Haute-Savoie department since 1966.
- The main courtyard also hosts concerts and performances during the open season.
