# Château de la Verrerie

Le Creusot, Saône-et-Loire, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté

Château de la Verrerie stands in Le Creusot (Saône-et-Loire), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: third quarter of the 18th century, fourth quarter of the 19th century, 20th century). Admission is free. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

This large U-shaped building in Le Creusot began as the royal crystal manufactory, moved from Sèvres in 1786 to take advantage of local coal supplies. Bought by the Schneider industrial family in the 19th century, it became their residence before being reworked around 1900 into a château set in grounds landscaped by Achille Duchêne. Visitors today find an Italian-style theatre built inside a former glass furnace, along with the museum collections now housed in the building.
