Located between Tournus and Cluny, in the heart of southern Burgundy, the Chateau de Cormatin was built by the Marquises of Huxelles in the early seventeenth century.
This majestic 17th-century chateau features lavishly gilded rooms, extensive tended gardens and even a moat.
An important stop on the Castles of Southern Burgundy tourist route, Cormatin offers something for everyone.
Long abandoned, the castle has been restored with a loving regard for authenticity. Art lovers will especially appreciate the belle epoque interiors of the ornamental apartments.
