Guided tour for groups of up to 25 people. General description of the castle and its history. Visit of the parterre, the courtyards, the seigneurial prison, its chapel and several rooms of the castle.
In the heart of the Beaujolais vineyard, a castle in golden stones whose origins seem to date back to the 13th century. The castle has a very elegant Renaissance building, late fortifications and 7 towers from the 14th to the 17th centuries. It belonged successively to various families who had at heart to maintain the building in condition, while retaining its stamp. The result is a complex but nevertheless harmonious arrangement of pavilions, courtyards and terraces dominated by 6 towers. If the imposing keep, the ancient drawbridge and the machicolations inevitably have a little medieval air, they blend seamlessly with the rather Renaissance ensemble of this picturesque and splendid citadel, very little warrior.Guided tour of the castle:
