Château de Floyrac, 17th century castle in Onet-le-Château, France

The castle features three pavilions with a Mansart roof design, positioned on a wooded promontory overlooking the Fontanges plain and Marcillac valley road.

Built in 1670 for Jean Cassan and his son Pierre, the castle replaced an earlier structure that burned down in 1617 and provided stones for Saint-Amans church.

The Department Council of Aveyron transformed the castle into a children's home, providing educational support and social services for vulnerable youth in the region.

The estate includes extensive grounds with a garden to the east, enclosed by walls, and a south-facing courtyard connecting the main residence with auxiliary buildings.

The interior displays refined architectural elements including vaulted ground floor rooms and a grand staircase housed within the central pavilion of the structure.
