Château de Chassay, Renaissance castle in Sainte-Luce-sur-Loire, France.

Château de Chassay displays main architecture from the 16th century with an Italian Renaissance style facade and additional wings constructed around 1750.

This residence of the Bishops of Nantes until 1791 received King Henry IV in April 1598, right before the signing of the Edict of Nantes.

Records from 1683 show that the estate included a noble manor and a small castle with gardens featuring a fountain known for medicinal properties.

The castle, which currently houses the Sainte-Luce-sur-Loire town hall, offers conferences about its history and architecture led by experts.

The castle's rotunda, an uncommon architectural element in Loire-Atlantique, demonstrates the influence of 19th-century neoclassical and romantic styles.
