Château de Saint-Victor stands in Saint-Victor-sur-Loire (Loire), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The Château de Saint-Victor overlooks the medieval village of Saint-Victor-sur-Loire, in the Loire department, where the Loire and Lizeron valleys meet. Its origins date back to the 13th century, when the site was a fortified settlement flanked by two towers, one from the 12th century and the other from the 16th. Home to the de Nérestang family during the 16th and 17th centuries, it later served as a prison and then as a boarding institution run by nuns, before a local association took it over at the end of the 1960s. The site today hosts cultural events within its walls.
