Château de Jenzat

Originally, a 13th-century castle stood here, of which only a large round tower remains today. In the 15th century, a fortified house was built. Around 1651, a part of the property changed hands when Blain de Chauvigny de Blot sold one-third of the castle to Gilbert de Champfeu. In 1744, Guillaume du Jouhannel acquired the lordship of Jenzat. His son Jean-Baptiste Julien, a counselor at the Parliament of Paris, had the new, classical castle built and French gardens laid out between 1760 and 1780. The estate is still owned by the descendants of the de Roquefeuil family and was classified as a historical monument in 1995.

The Château de Jenzat is privately owned. Two castles are within the same park: an older one from the 15th century, with its facade facing east, and a classical 18th-century castle, whose axis is rotated by 90 degrees and whose facade faces south. A gate provides access to the park and leads via an avenue to the newer castle.
