Château d'Uriage, Medieval castle in Saint-Martin-d'Uriage, France.
The stone structure combines medieval defensive features with Renaissance architectural elements, including fortified walls and an impressive orangery at the garden level.
Built at the end of the 10th century, the castle underwent major transformations during the 15th and 16th centuries to adapt to changing military requirements.
From 1940 to 1942, the castle housed the National Youth Leadership School, reflecting the social changes during the Second World War in France.
The castle, now divided into 50 private apartments, opens its doors to visitors during European Heritage Days in September each year.
The castle received two distinct heritage designations: first registered as a historic monument in 1988, then partially classified in 1990.
