Château de Corcelles-en-Beaujolais stands in Corcelles-en-Beaujolais (Rhône), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
In Corcelles-en-Beaujolais, this former medieval stronghold, rebuilt in the 15th century, gradually shed its defensive role to become a lord's residence, later becoming linked to the Beaujolais vineyards that surround it today. Visitors can see preserved façades and roof framing, a chapel with its carved wooden panelling, an old weapons hall and kitchen, and a well, all elements protected under the 1927 listing. The estate is now oriented toward winemaking, and a visit to the buildings goes hand in hand with discovering the surrounding vineyard.
What to know
- The château has a private car park with 150 spaces, also accessible to coaches.
- Opening hours are only available on certain days of the week, so it is worth checking before visiting.
- The site is also a working wine estate, so a visit can be combined with discovering the wines produced there.
- The protected features (façades, roof framing, chapel, weapons hall, kitchen, well) date from the 15th-century rebuilding.
