To make a day of it

Château Dorian stands in Fraisses (Loire), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: third quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Château Dorian stands in Fraisses, in the Loire department, built between 1868 and 1869 under master builders Leroux and Chapelon. Several interior spaces, including the vestibule, dining room and blue drawing room, are listed as classified historic monuments, while the rest of the building holds a lower level of heritage protection. This dual level of protection points to interiors of particular quality for their time.
