Château de Jasseron stands in Jasseron (Ain), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
In the village of Jasseron, in the Ain department, the ruins of a medieval fortress recall a history going back to the 10th century. Rebuilt in the 13th century, it once served as the seat of the local lordship before falling into ruin at the end of the 16th century. The site, now listed as a historic monument, is best approached as an open-air ruin rather than a restored castle.
