Château de Sainte Sabine

To make a day of it

Château de Sainte Sabine stands in Sainte-Sabine (Côte-d'Or), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

At the northern edge of the village of Sainte-Sabine, in the Côte-d'Or, this château stands on a terrace above the Miotte stream. Its quadrangular plan, ringed by moats and flanked by bastion-shaped towers, reflects successive rebuilding campaigns from 1625 through a 19th-century neo-Renaissance remodeling. Visitors can still see the two entrance pavilions surviving from the 17th-century structure, along with a semi-hexagonal tower on the inner façade of the main residence. The building has since been converted into a hotel.
