Château de Châtillon-Coligny, Renaissance castle ruins in Châtillon-Coligny, France.

The 19th-century mansion stands behind high gates, built on the former entrance pavilion of a Renaissance residence in 1854.

The site hosted three successive castles: a medieval fortress by Etienne de Champagne, Nicolas Bracque's 1379 construction, and the Coligny Renaissance castle.

The castle grounds feature a 17th-century park designed by André Le Nôtre, covering 20 hectares with diverse tree species and star-shaped paths.

The property remains private and closed to visitors, but inquiries can be made through the local festival committee in Châtillon-Coligny.

Queen Juliana of the Netherlands funded a marble funeral monument, inaugurated in 1937, for Gaspard II de Coligny's remains, which rest in the castle wall.
