Château de Chevreaux, Medieval castle in Chevreaux, France.

The stone fortress stands at 473 meters elevation on a rocky hill, providing views over the Bresse plain in eastern France.

Built in 1158, the castle belonged to three noble families until 1637, when the Duke of Longueville's army captured and demolished the fortifications.

The Association Les Amis de Chevreaux Chatel organizes international youth camps dedicated to castle restoration and historical preservation techniques.

The castle grounds remain open year-round for self-guided visits, with guided tours available Wednesday through Sunday during summer months.

The medieval castle features twelve rooms with fireplaces, defensive towers, a chapel, wine cellars, and gardens according to 1628 documentation.
