Set in the hills of the Velay region, in Haute-Loire, this château has belonged to the same family since the 14th century and remains a private residence today. Behind its roughly square plan, with four wings arranged around an inner courtyard that was glazed over in the 19th century, lies an older core dating back to a fortified house of the 11th and 12th centuries. Major restoration work carried out around 1875 restored corner towers and bartizans to give the building a medieval silhouette, while the interior was fitted with neo-gothic decor, including monumental fireplaces, woodwork and stencilled paintwork. A formal French garden extends in front of the main façade.
