Château de Sandrans

En un regard

Le château en bref

The Château de Sandrans, mentioned in writing as early as the 13th century, belonged to the Sandrans family, which gave it its name. It comprises a brick tower and a quadrangular building to the west; a cylindrical keep 11 metres in diameter was built in the 14th century, supplemented by additional elements in the 16th century. Built on a circular artificial mound (poype) 10 metres in diameter surrounded by water-filled moats, it served as a strategic observation post; two bartizans flank the entrance to the mound. A private property closed to the public, it has undergone restoration work and is recognised by the Fondation du patrimoine.
