En un regard
Le château en bref
Salagine Castle (Chalagine), set in the marshy plain between Albens and Rumilly in the commune of Bloye, was the centre of a seigneury first mentioned in 1292, held by the Cussieu family and, from 1368, by François de Candie. Passing to the Beaufort family at the beginning of the 15th century, then to the Pésieu family (raised to a barony for François de Pésieu in 1622), and finally to the Rochette family at the end of the 17th century, the seigneury was demolished in 1796 on the orders of citizen Tiollier, a revolutionary purchaser, who replaced it with a modern manor house of strict symmetry and round-arched windows, still visible today on the same site.
