Château de Genas, 17th century castle in Cléon-d'Andran, France.

The castle displays an Italian-style facade with two side pavilions and maintains an east-west orientation to shield against strong winds.

The Genas family established residence during Louis XIII's reign, following the marriage between Blaise de Genas and Marguerite Giraud in 1605.

The castle and gardens received historical monument status in 1989, including protection for the surrounding walls and main gateway.

The property stands 900 meters to the right when exiting Cléon d'Andran village via the Marsanne road.

The double baluster staircase features carved lions and a coat of arms belonging to the Genas family, an unusual architectural element in this area.
