Castle of Quinsonnas, Medieval castle in Sérézin-de-la-Tour, France.

The castle stands on a hill overlooking the Bourbre valley, featuring two circular towers on the north side and U-shaped residential buildings.

The castle changed ownership in 1224 when Berlion de la Tour transferred the fief rights to his brother Jocelyn Viguier de Romans.

The lime trees in the main courtyard represent the landscaping legacy of François de Bonne de Lesdiguières from the early 17th century.

The castle, converted into a bed and breakfast, is reachable via a paved road from the village of Sérézin-de-la-Tour.

Lightning struck the inhabited castle in August 2022, causing substantial damage to the roof structure during a severe thunderstorm.
