This late château is one of the finest seigniorial residences in the Vienne region, and houses the Order of Malta museum.
It is one of the most beautiful seigniorial residences of the Vienne, by the harmony of its whole. Overlooking the valley of the Belle, built at the end of the 15th century until the 18th century, its facade mixes Gothic and Renaissance sculptures that frame four round towers. It opens onto a magnificent French garden designed by Le Nôtre and a Gothic chapel built around 1530 with magnificent stained glass windows. In the outbuildings of the castle, the only museum in France dedicated to the Order of Malta retraces the history of the knights with the help of objects, maps, armors...

La grille du château ouvre 10 minutes avant l’heure des visites, ne pas s’inquiéter de l’absence de « bureau d’accueil », c’est aussi le charme des maisons de famille qui ouvrent leurs portes aux visiteurs.
Le musée de l’ordre de Malte est aussi très bien documenté.
Parents et enfants ravis ! Merci !
