Château d'Usson, Renaissance castle in Pons, France.

The fortress features a U-shaped layout with Renaissance galleries, lateral wings adorned with towers, and decorative elements across its courtyard facade.

William Augereau acquired the castle remains in 1879 and relocated its components by wagon to the Seugne Valley, completing restoration in 1890.

The castle incorporates architectural elements from other buildings, including a fireplace from Château de Pons and Regency woodwork from Château de Rosny-sur-Seine.

The castle welcomes visitors year-round with facilities for private events, including access to the Cour d'Honneur, Italian gardens, and three reception rooms.

Since 1999, the castle houses an amusement park called Château des Énigmes with 27 games testing orientation, hearing, and smell throughout the grounds.
