The château de Varambon stands in the Ain department, on the banks of the river Ain, carrying a long history of destruction and rebuilding since a first structure founded around the year 1000. What visitors see today dates mainly from the 18th century, with a main façade reworked in the 19th century in a neo-gothic style.
