30 châteaux listed · verified entries first, then the most visited; alphabetical index at the bottom of the page

Of the 96 castles we list in Jura, these 30 have a building campaign from this period, according to the French Ministry of Culture's records.

We record 30 castles, manor houses and strongholds from the Renaissance, spread across 26 towns and villages. The ones with the most visitor reviews are Château de Présilly (Présilly Castle) (a listed historic monument), Demeure dite hôtel de Vurry (16th century), Château de Bersaillin (Bersaillin Castle) (you can stay the night), Château de Marigna (Marigna Castle) (on the historic monuments register) and Château de Gevingey (Gevingey Castle) (23 reviews).

6 of them are listed historic monuments, the highest level of protection in French heritage law. The dominant period is the Renaissance, with 30 buildings. Each entry says what we could verify and what still needs confirming: enough to plan a day that holds together.
