About

Nestled on the southern fringe of Burgundy, Château de Cormatin is a jewel of early 17th‑century French architecture. Its imposing, military‑style façades and sweeping moat surround a 10‑hectare park that faithfully recreates a Baroque garden, complete with a boxwood labyrinth, a grand staircase that rises 21 m—one of the largest of its kind—and gilded “Golden Hallways” (Salles dorées). The château’s storied past, its recent restoration, and the serene setting beside the Grosne River make it a must‑visit for families, history buffs, and culture‑seekers alike.
