# Château de Polignac

Polignac, Haute-Loire, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Château de Polignac stands in Polignac (Haute-Loire), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century, 16th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Polignac castle stands on a basalt platform above the valley of the same name, a few kilometres from Le Puy-en-Velay. A walk along the crenellated curtain wall leads to the 12th-century keep, known as the 'grosse tour', where a spiral staircase climbs to a viewpoint over the Puy basin. The site recalls the viscounts of Polignac, who ruled the Velay region for centuries, and the visit of King Francis I in 1532.
