In Séneujols, in the Haute-Loire department, this castle reflects the seigneurial architecture typical of the Velay region, centered on a 14th-century keep surrounded by its fortified wall. Successive alterations, during the Wars of Religion and later in the 17th and 19th centuries, turned it into a complex combining defensive, residential and farming functions. Inside, visitors can see period woodwork and a trompe-l'œil painted decor, along with a small drawing room painted with landscapes by an Italian prisoner during the Second World War.
