# Château du Menuet

Les Échelles, Savoie, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Château du Menuet stands in Les Échelles (Savoie), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. No visits are on record for this building.

The Château du Menuet no longer stands, but its site, a plateau overlooking the Guiers river above Les Échelles, still carries the memory of a stronghold founded by the earliest counts of Savoy in the 11th century. Visitors come less for physical remains than for the history attached to the place: a countess of Provence is said to have been born and later lived here, choosing it as her burial site. The location once oversaw the old Roman road linking Lyon and Turin.

**No visits on record.** No opening hours or ticketing found.
