Château de Saix stands in Péronnas (Ain), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, 14th century, 15th century, 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The Château de Saix stands in Péronnas, in the Ain department, on the site of a medieval stronghold that once guarded the border between the Dombes and Bresse regions. The oldest surviving features, monumental fireplaces, ogee-arched doorways, exposed timber ceilings and a brick defensive wall topped with a walkway, date from the 14th and 15th centuries. A square tower flanks the main residential block, while a 19th century wing in bourgeois style completes the ensemble. The building thus reflects several centuries of architectural change.
