Château de Trévoux, Medieval castle in Trévoux, France.

The castle features an octagonal tower adorned with golden and white stones, rising 17 meters above the Saône River valley.

Built in the late 13th century, the fortress protected a river toll point at the border between the Kingdom of France and the Empire.

The castle stands as a monument to medieval military architecture, with its three-meter-thick walls and strategic defensive position.

The castle opens from March through September, with guided tours available on Sunday mornings and admission prices ranging from 3 to 5.50 euros.

The castle remained unchanged for two centuries until 1563, when it was abandoned following an attack during the Wars of Religion.
