Château de Beauregard, Medieval castle in Saint-Péray, France.

The castle features a central building with square pavilions, large windows, and an enclosing wall containing 136 defensive holes.

Built between 1640 and 1652 by Claude Teste-Fernand de la Motte, the castle functioned as a state prison from 1696 to 1791.

The castle marked the beginning of Saint-Péray sparkling wine production in 1829 when it was converted into a wine cellar.

The municipality of Saint-Péray purchased the castle in 2020, adding this historical structure to the city's public properties.

The basement level, which served as a prisoner exercise area, maintains its original layout from the 17th-century prison period.
