To make a day of it

Château de Loriol stands in Confrançon (Ain), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The château de Loriol stands in Confrançon, in the Ain department. Originally built as a fortified castle in the early 14th century, it was reworked in 1860 by architect Charles Martin, giving it the appearance it has today from the 19th century.
