Find out more about Durianne Castle and its peasant farm: Perched above the river, Durianne Castle has been watching over the entrance of the Loire Gorges since the end of the 15th century. Emblematic example of the Velay fortified houses, the residence skillfully mixes the characteristics of Renaissance architecture with discrete defensive elements, all in a green setting of the most picturesque. The house is in the Balme family of Garay since 1836\. Associated with the castle, the organic farm is dedicated to the conservation of ancient local endangered breeds. Thus you can meet the flock of sheep Bizet, watched by the shepherd dog Noah, horses of Auvergne of which there remain only six hundred individuals in France. You will certainly be accompanied in your visit by a joyful barnyard that wanders where it pleases, just as in the farms of yesteryear! The orchard is home to ancient and protected varieties, the park is home to century-old trees. The wild nature is also at the rendezvou
