Château de Saint-Baslemont, Medieval castle in Saint-Baslemont, France.

The L-shaped castle features two round towers with conical roofs covered in wooden shingles at the southeast and southwest corners of the structure.

Built in the 14th century by the Counts of Montreux, the castle passed to the Reinach family in 1487 through marriage and underwent modernization in 1581.

The castle's southern facade overlooks two landscaped garden terraces, with architectural elements reflecting changes made during the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

Located at coordinates 48.151527 latitude and 5.993946 longitude, this private property received monument historique inscription status on April 21, 1937.

The castle survived a Swedish siege in 1635 and later served as a hotel in 1922 before experiencing a lightning-induced fire in 1975.
