This exceptional site, a timeless treasure to be discovered, where each stone whispers the echoes of a centuries-old past. The Château de CHÂTILLON, majestically erected on its rocky spur overlooking the Nivernais Canal, is an invitation to travel through the ages. Its origins date back to the 10th century, and its current silhouette is the result of a harmonious architectural evolution. The main 13th-century residence, successively transformed in the 15th, 17th and 18th centuries, is accompanied by its 13th-century defense tower and the 17th-century "small castle." The park, designed by Count LAVENNE de CHOULOT in 1830, embellished with water mirrors, a creation of the current owners, extends over 5.8 hectares and is labeled "Remarkable Gardens." All this authentic heritage, tastefully renovated and perfectly maintained by its owners, benefits from a very high-end rehabilitation while preserving the charm of the place.
