At Vieure, in the Allier department, the château de la Chaussière stands on a rise overlooking the surrounding countryside, facing the road to Ygrande. Built in the late 19th century for a member of the Riant family, it combines neo-Gothic elements with the decorative spirit of Louis XIII style houses beneath tall slate roofs, its façades playing with brick, stone and slate. A visit reveals the chapel with its pentagonal apse, the corner turret topped with a pepper-pot roof, and inside a spiral staircase of medieval inspiration along with a gallery featuring an oversized fireplace.
