Many towers, many fireplaces, many rooms

Exceptional fortress of the 13th and 15th centuries, Monument Historique, looming on a rocky escarpment, with numerous outbuildings. This historic castle is one of the treasures of central France.  Beautiful 15th century fireplaces, remarkable roof timbering, paneling, wooden hoardings. Four hectares of grounds with medieval gardens and river.

Bourges is the nearest city, with a population of just under 100,000. It was the capital of the ancient province of Berry, whose duke commissioned the famous Très Riches Heures, a prayerbook with the most famous illuminations from the French High Gothic. The inhabitants of this area are called Berrichons.
