Aux Portes Du Dauphiné, Un Château Emblématique Inscrit Mh

Aux portes du Dauphiné, un château emblématique inscrit MH . The property is located within an immense fortified enclosure, of approximately one kilometre, the ramparts of which recall its original defensive vocation. As for the U-shaped chateau, a major medieval stronghold in the Dauphiné region, it was constructed as of the 13th century around an immense interior courtyard and then remodelled on a number of occasions until the Renaissance, while the main building, constructed out of limestone and rubble stone, features three storeys over a courtyard level.

In addition, its exteriors are primarily cadenced by cross-windows as well as, on its courtyard side, arcaded galleries and Renaissance loggias, evidence of the progressive transformation of the fortress into a lordly residence. Flanked by a circular tower from the 14th century as well as a square tower and a well-preserved keep, several vestiges of its former curtain walls still remain, while its steeply sloping roofs – covered in either flat tiles forming a polychrome diamond pattern or topped with conical turrets – are punctuated by dormers and tall chimneys.

To the east, a drive provides access to the entrance gate and, to the south, French-style gardens open on to wooded grounds, whereas a caretaker’s lodge and former stables are located near the main dwelling and round out the premises’ historic edifices.
