Château de Lusigny-sur-Ouche

En un regard

Le château en bref

The Château de Lusigny-sur-Ouche is located in Lusigny-sur-Ouche, in the Côte-d'Or département. Above the entrance door, the date 1690 confirms the end of the rebuilding of the château in the second half of the 17th century, on the basis of a former fortified farm. The monument has been classified as a historic monument since 12 January 1945 (staircase and dome) and listed since 22 July 1943 (château). The monumental staircase is remarkable. It recalls the one at the Château de Cormatin and that of the former Feuillants convent in Lyon. Today, a project is developing at the Château de Lusigny around three entities: the association l'Arrière-pays (founded in 2010) is developing an educational and cultural project on the site; in 2013, a gîte opened, enabling family or friends' groups to gather; in 2015, the artist Michel Jeannès created on the site the Brasserie des Sources de l'Ouche, an artisanal micro-brewery producing the beer L'Ouche, named after the river of the same name, which rises a few hundred metres upstream.
