Château de Jasseron, Medieval castle ruins in Jasseron, France.
The castle features a horseshoe-shaped keep and a quadrangular enclosure, with square and hexagonal towers reinforcing the surrounding walls.
Around 974, Richer, son of Manasses de Coligny, donated the castle to Saint-Claude Abbey when he became a monk.
The site stands as a representation of bipartite castle mounds, incorporating an artificial truncated cone mound and a large lower courtyard.
Located one kilometer northeast of Jasseron church, the ruins occupy a strategic position on a ridge with coordinates 46.2167, 5.3342.
The remains include a medieval priory, vaulted cellar structures, and the foundations of a chapel within the lower courtyard.
