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

Of the 99 castles we list in Yonne, these 37 have a building campaign from this period, according to the French Ministry of Culture's records.

We record 37 castles, manor houses and strongholds from the Renaissance, spread across 35 towns and villages. The ones with the most visitor reviews are Château de Vallery (Vallery Castle) (open to visitors), Château de Ratilly (Ratilly Castle) (on the historic monuments register), Château du Fey (Fey Castle) (17th century), Château de Vault-de-Lugny (a listed historic monument) and Chevillon Castle (you can stay the night).

9 of them receive visitors, according to their official website or their business listing. We have checked the opening hours of 9 and the prices of 4 of them, and each entry shows the date of that check. 14 of them are listed historic monuments, the highest level of protection in French heritage law. The dominant period is the Renaissance, with 37 buildings. Each entry says what we could verify and what still needs confirming: enough to plan a day that holds together.
