Château d'Auzers, Medieval castle in Auzers, France.

The castle features a rectangular main building with two round towers, defensive battlements, and a prominent staircase tower on its facade.

Built between 1470 and 1510, the castle replaced an earlier 14th-century structure and has remained in the possession of the Douhet family.

The castle's oratory contains 16th-century polychrome wall paintings depicting scenes from the life of Jesus, reflecting Renaissance artistic traditions.

Visitors can explore the castle from Easter to All Saints' Day, with guided tours showing the furnished rooms and historical collections.

The Empire bedroom contains furniture given by Napoleon Bonaparte to Jean-Louis d'Auzers, including pieces from Marie Antoinette's collection.
