In Saint-Just-en-Chevalet, in the Loire department, the château de Contenson stands with its pink granite walls and grey volcanic stone ornaments, built at the very end of the 19th century by Baron Camille Bernou de Rochetaillée on the remains of a 16th-century stronghold. The building draws on Renaissance style with Gothic touches, and its slate roof from Angers can be seen from around the village. The property remains privately owned, so it is viewed from outside only, without access to the surviving salons or cellars of the older structure.

**No visits on record.** No opening hours or ticketing found.
