Château de Montrottier stands in Lovagny (Haute-Savoie), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, 15th century, 18th century, 19th century). Adult admission costs 10 EUR. Its opening hours and prices were verified at the source on August 4, 2026.
Perched on a hill above the Fier gorges, close to Annecy, Montrottier castle keeps its 13th-century pentagonal enclosure and a cylindrical keep rising over 35 metres. The visit takes in the Knights' lodge and the Religieuse tower, the oldest building on site, along with an art collection assembled by a former owner. From the wall walk, the view stretches as far as Mont Blanc on a clear day.
