Château de Saint-Augustin, 18th-century castle in Château-sur-Allier, France.

Saint-Augustin Castle features polychrome brick architecture with two levels and circular towers, surrounded by an extensive wooded park.

In 1729, Gilbert Cadier demolished the medieval fortress to build the current structure, which was later transformed into a Palladian villa around 1810.

The interior displays a hall with Doric columns, a dining room with Louis XVI decorations, and a fireplace carved during the French Revolution.

Guided tours operate from July to August, from 12 PM to 6 PM, with admission fees of 9 euros for adults and 7 euros for children.

The estate housed a wildlife reserve managed by Yann Arthus-Bertrand from 1967 to 1975, before its permanent closure in 2002.
