Château de Domecy-sur-Cure, Medieval castle in Domecy-sur-Cure, France
The rectangular castle features three floors with round towers and displays a combination of slate and tile roofing constructions along its structure.
Originally built as a fortified house in the 12th century, the castle underwent major renovations during the 15th century when it received its quadrangular extension.
The Renaissance fireplace in the main room represents the architectural evolution of French nobility residences during the 16th and 17th centuries.
The castle remains privately owned and requires advance arrangements for visits, while its location provides access to the Morvan Regional Natural Park.
The castle served as a strategic point between the Duchy of Burgundy and the County of Nevers during medieval territorial divisions.
