The château du Breuil stands in Gennetines, in the Allier department. The present building, raised around 1830 from the stones of an earlier castle, is a long, low structure of a single storey, topped by tall roof spaces thought to date back to the 15th century. Two dormer windows break through this roofline, the only visible trace of the older construction.
