Château de Chémery, Medieval and Renaissance castle in Chémery, France
The castle structure combines two distinct sections, featuring medieval fortifications with a Renaissance wing surrounded by protective moats and a wooden footbridge.
Dating from the 13th century, the castle belonged to noble families including the Chalon-Tonnerre and Beauvilliers before transforming into a farm in the 18th century.
The castle serves as both a historical monument and an event venue, maintaining its architectural heritage while accommodating modern gatherings and celebrations.
The castle provides guided tours and offers multiple accommodation options, including the Baldaquin room, Dames room, Talleyrand suite, and Colombage suite.
French singer Alain Souchon spent his youth in this castle, which now houses a piano potentially used by King Francis I and Leonardo da Vinci.
