To make a day of it
Château de Parthey stands in Choisey (Jura), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 13th century, 18th century, second half of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In Choisey, in the Jura, the château de Parthey stands on the site of a fortress dating from the late thirteenth century, partly destroyed in 1479 and recorded as uninhabitable in the early sixteenth century. The present house, reworked in the late nineteenth century under the direction of Louis Rouzet, combines a Renaissance-style pavilion, two corner turrets and a neo-Gothic chapel. The park, laid out in the English manner, retains features going back to the eighteenth century. Inside, the layout has largely kept its appearance from around 1900.
