Château Pécauld, Historic monument and wine museum in Arbois, France
The Château Pécauld combines a medieval round tower with a residential wing added during the early 16th century in the heart of Arbois.
Built in the 13th century as part of the city walls, the castle changed ownership from the Vellefaux family to Nicolas Perrenot de Granvelle.
The castle houses the Jura Wine Museum since 1993, displaying regional wine production methods and traditional winemaking equipment.
Visitors gain access to permanent exhibitions about wine culture and can participate in wine tasting sessions in the historical cellars.
The structure transformed from a defensive fortress to a noble residence, then a presbytery, boys school, and finally a wine museum.
