Château de Cusy stands in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (Haute-Savoie), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
The château de Cusy survives today only as a ruin, the remnant of a medieval stronghold that once stood on the shifting border between the lands of Geneva and Savoy, in what is now Haute-Savoie. Built on an old fortified mound, it watched over the road linking Annecy and Aix to the Bauges massif, alongside the nearby châteaux of Alby and Gruffy. Looted and burned during the Revolution, it was never rebuilt and its stones were later quarried away.
