Château de la Jayère, Heritage château in Lyon, France

The château features a rectangular main facade spanning three levels with a terrace balustrade on the second floor and two oculus windows on the north side.

Construction of Château de la Jayère began in the mid-19th century under the ownership of Clémentine de Villas d'Arnal, reflecting the architectural preferences of that period.

The red-plastered exterior and four-sided roof with steep-angled pavilions demonstrate the architectural elements typical of French residential buildings of its time.

Located on a hillside beneath the Duchère district, the private château remains closed to public visits while offering views over the Saône plain and Vaise area.

The property includes a neo-medieval watchtower connected to the main building by a bridge that crosses a small stream running through the grounds.

Location: 9th arrondissement of Lyon
