En un regard
Le château en bref
Château de Pontoux, in Saône-et-Loire, in the Verdun-sur-le-Doubs area, is a mansion dating from the mid-eighteenth century and listed in the General Inventory of the Cultural Heritage of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté. Its plan combines a U-shaped main building with a courtyard of honour flanked by two large rectangular buildings. The walls are of rendered brick, with dressed stone surrounds. The openings are topped with segmental arches. The hipped roofs with croupes are covered in flat tiles. To the north, an isolated circular dovecote completes the ensemble, but it has lost its conical roof. In the twentieth century, the re-roofing removed part of the original dormer windows.
