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. The building likely replaced an earlier structure dating back to the late 11th century, and served as the seat of the Asnières-les-Bois lordship. It is now listed as a historic monument.
