Castle of Machuraz, Historical castle in Valromey-sur-Séran, France.

The Castle of Machuraz stands with its detailed woodwork, stained glass windows, and architectural elements designed by Benoît-Joseph Chatron in the French countryside.

Originally built in the 16th century, this castle replaced a fortified house and underwent significant modifications during the 19th century under Baron Léon d'Allemagne's ownership.

The property includes gardens, stables, cellars, and a northern staircase with a fountain, representing French architectural traditions of noble residences.

The castle, registered as a historical monument since November 2006, remains a private residence and maintains restricted access to the general public.

The site began as agricultural land owned by Saint-Sulpice monks who cultivated vineyards there for three centuries before the first tower construction.
