Hidden in the rolling countryside of central France stands a medieval château surrounded by water — a stronghold that has watched over these lands since the early 1300s. Its towers once protected the outskirts of the town, and its bridge replaced a vanished drawbridge that had guarded the entrance for centuries.

Inside these walls, history runs deep.
This was the domain of a notorious family — a lineage of diplomats, stewards, archdeacons, and royal envoys. One of them, Philibert, climbed as high as the courts of Charles IX, served as ambassador to Mary Stuart, and played a role in the turbulent Wars of Religion that shaped France.

Yet in time, the château fell silent.

We explore rooms where generations once gathered, climb towers that have not seen footsteps in decades, and wander through salons still furnished with tapestries, portraits, and heirlooms left untouched. From the dining hall beneath its monumental fireplace to the upper floors filled with preserved bedrooms, every corner feels suspended between past and present.
