To make a day of it
Château de Cluzel stands in Mazeyrat-d'Allier (Haute-Loire), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first quarter of the 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The château de Cluzel stands in Mazeyrat-d'Allier, in the Haute-Loire department, built as a large quadrangle flanked by two round towers. Dating from the early 17th century and raised on the foundations of an older building, it belonged for more than four centuries to the Cluzel family before passing to the La Rochefoucauld and then, in 1730, to the Bouillé family. The main draw lies inside, in two rooms with carved and painted woodwork typical of the Louis XIII style.
