Château de Persanges stands in L'Étoile (Jura), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first half of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Built during the first half of the nineteenth century in the Jurassic hillsides, Persanges Castle consists of a central main building flanked by two service wings. One of these outbuildings was devoted to wine production, the other organized domestic spaces. The interior retains features from the Restoration period: parquet floors with marquetry, decorated alcove, and relief decoration on the fireplaces.

What to know

The castle stands isolated on the hillside, reached by a side avenue leading to an axial gateway.
Listed as a historic monument in 2006, the entire buildings and both western and southern gateways are protected.
The Restoration-era interiors form the main interest: marquetry floors, decorated alcove, and relief-decorated fireplace panels.
