To make a day of it
Château de Sampigny stands in Gerzat (Puy-de-Dôme), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century, 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The château de Sampigny stands in the commune of Gerzat, in the Puy-de-Dôme department. Its square main building, erected at the end of the 17th century and flanked by corner turrets, was extended in the following century by a plainer wing topped with a flat roof. A long outbuilding range typical of the Auvergne region stands apart from the main house, and the park still holds a four-lobed pond and a narrow stretch of water. The estate now operates as a private and corporate event venue rather than a heritage site open to visitors.
