# Château de Trévoux

Trévoux, Ain, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Château de Trévoux stands in Trévoux (Ain), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 15th century, first half of the 16th century). Adult admission costs 7.5 EUR. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

On the Dombes plateau, above the town of Trévoux, stand the remains of a fortified castle built in the late 13th or early 14th century by the lords of Villars. Abandoned after the siege of 1563, it was never rebuilt or altered, making it a rare surviving example of medieval military architecture. The keep, its masonry combining yellow stone from Couzon and white stone from Lucenay, still overlooks the Saône river, which it once guarded via a toll station below.
