En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château des Bédaures, sometimes spelled Bédores, is a large bourgeois mansion built in 1889 by Louis Golliaud in the commune of Trévol (Allier), close to the communal forest. The building has some 1,200 square metres of living space and sits within a vast landscaped park of about 60 hectares, enclosed by a wall roughly 6 kilometres long. The interior decoration, shaped by the original owner's passion for horses, includes photographs, trophies and decorative items related to equestrian life. In 2010, Béatrice Burchler Keller donated the estate to the Austrian association Gut Aiderbichl, which runs several animal sanctuaries across Europe. Since then, the Trévol site has housed a sanctuary for horses, cats and dogs that have been mistreated or are elderly. The estate is not among the sites open to visitors listed by the association.
