Château de Beauvoir, Medieval castle in Échassières, France.
Château de Beauvoir stands within a 200-hectare estate, featuring architectural elements typical of medieval fortresses in the Bourbonnais region.
Built around 1200, the castle belonged to the Le Loup family before passing to the Alègre family in the early 16th century.
The castle, registered as a historical monument since 1929, represents a notable example of defensive architecture in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.
Visitors can explore multiple reception areas, including the Orangerie and French gardens, with capacity for up to 350 people.
The castle currently serves as headquarters for the Société des kaolins de Beauvoir, managing kaolin deposits known for their purity.
