Château de Pully

En un regard

Le château en bref

Pully Castle stands in the commune of Lailly-en-Val, in the Loiret, south of the Loire, on the edge of the Sologne. The site was already occupied by a hunting lodge attributed to Francis I, whose remains form the foundations of the present residence, built in 1763. The château, of classical design, was supplemented by a chapel around 1850. Its wrought-iron entrance gate, a finely crafted piece that opens onto the estate, is the only part listed as a monument historique. The estate, which reflects the appeal of the game-rich lands on the left bank of the Loire for the court and then for the nobility of the 18th century, remains a private property and is not documented as being open to the public.
