Château de Nanc-lès-Saint-Amour

The castle features a rectangular structure measuring 24 meters in length and 14 meters in width, with three floors and a circular tower containing a spiral staircase.

The lordship of Nanc was documented in 1434 when Philip the Good confiscated the property and transferred it to Nicolas Rolin, marking a significant change in ownership.

The fortress transformed into a municipal center in 1838 when the local authorities purchased it and established the town hall and school until 1936.

The castle stands at coordinates 46.4238°N and 5.3601°E in the Jura department of the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region, near several historical communes.

The building presents an unusual parallelogram shape with mullioned windows and experienced multiple architectural modifications during the extensive renovations of 1717.
