Château de Brandon
Built on the remains of a Gallo-Roman camp, Brandon was part of the duchy of Burgundy's military defence up until the end of the 15th century. An excellent example of military architecture, with Upper and Lower walled Courtyards, 12th century Watchman's Round and 13th century drawbridge tower. The main building was modified during the reign of King Louis XIII when the fortress was turned into a 17th centry country seat : dining-room, drawing-room, great hall, study. Heraldry exhibition. Brandon is a family home lived in all year round. Wonderful panoramic view.
