Château de Faverges-de-la-Tour, Medieval castle in Faverges-de-la-Tour, France.
The castle stands on a rocky promontory between Lyon, Grenoble, and Chambéry, offering views of the Alpine mountain range through its multiple windows.
The fortress, first documented in the 14th century, belonged to the Virieu family from 1230 and underwent Italian-style renovations between 1850 and 1885.
The castle features 18th-century vaulted stables with a dated window from 1732 and a southeast tower that lost its crown during the French Revolution.
The property contains 63 bedrooms and 8 meeting rooms equipped with modern facilities, accommodating groups from 2 to 90 participants for corporate events.
The castle grounds extend over 35 acres of woodland and include facilities for volleyball, golf practice, mountain biking, and an outdoor heated swimming pool.
