Martigny Castle

En un regard

Le château en bref

Martigny Castle is a manor house associated with a large cattle-fattening farm, at the locality of Martigny in the commune of Poisson (Saône-et-Loire), in the Brionnais. The estate was established in the 1730s by Claude-Marie Pernot, then passed in 1810 to the Ducroux family, who kept it and remodelled it in the nineteenth century. The house, of rendered masonry, consists of a main block flanked by two square pavilions. The agricultural buildings bear witness to the estate's vocation for breeding and fattening cattle, which was operated until the 1980s before being converted towards cultural tourism and hospitality. The whole was studied by the Inventaire général du patrimoine culturel de Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in 2018.
