CHAREIL-CINTRAT CASTLE
A monument to discover by wandering freely. Visitor documentation in five languages is available free of charge at reception.
Its layout is fairly standard, with a rectangular main building flanked by two circular towers to the west, but its decoration is one of the most interesting in the department. The monumental fireplaces bear sculptures, paintings, inscriptions and painted decorations. A heraldic eagle and a Diana of Ephesus are depicted on the flight of stairs, in a style and color reminiscent of Antiquity. Upstairs, a small room features an astrological ceiling, as well as a fireplace decorated with lion paws and a painting of Mars and Venus.

Nous avons apprécié cette visite malgré tout.
Next to a vineyard replanted with old grape varieties, you are there in Saint Pourçain!
