Château de Sainte-Colombe stands in Sainte-Colombe-en-Auxois (Côte-d'Or), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century, first half of the 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
In Sainte-Colombe-en-Auxois, in the Côte-d'Or, this 17th century château stands at the heart of the village, built in the 1640s by a local lord near the small church. Its main building flanked by two pavilions reflects the classical balance of the period, later extended in the following century with a wing topped by a mansard roof. Long neglected and then used for farming, it has recovered its original ochre yellow and red tones on the façade thanks to restoration work carried out by volunteers.
