Built on a volcanic peak, the Château de Saint-Ilpize dominates the Allier valley with all its power. Only the various enclosures, the restored Romanesque chapel, and the seigneurial tower that now houses the village bell tower remain. The majestic site offers stunning views of the Allier and the surrounding villages.
