History+

The history of Château Aubonne began in the 11th century, when it consisted of two separate building complexes. A transformation occurred in the 17th century, when the castle was largely rebuilt. From this period, around 1680, date the palace and the round tower with its domed roof. Inside the palace is an arcaded courtyard, and the courtroom has a painted ceiling from 1670. Between 1980 and 1985, the castle underwent restoration.
