Château de Saint-Julien, Medieval fortress in Siccieu-Saint-Julien-et-Carisieu, France.
The castle features a rectangular courtyard with a monumental entrance portal, two quadrangular wings, and circular corner turrets topped with pavilion roofs.
The fortress belonged to Louis de Saint-Jullin before passing to Etienne de la Poype, the Constable of Dauphiné, in 1260.
King Francis I stayed at the castle, which was later elevated to county status in 1739 by Louis-Antoine de Saint-Jullin de Granet.
The castle includes a landscaped park with a fountain, washhouse, and garden structure, with a farm located at the lower part of the site.
The central tower displays watchtower turrets and includes windows that reference the architectural elements of medieval fortifications.
