Visit the castle of Époisses

A castle that has survived the centuries


Less than an hour's drive from our Best Western Signature Collection Le Maxime hotel, discover one of the jewels of Burgundy's heritage.

Built in the 6th century, the Château d'Epoisses is a witness to the history of France, from the Middle Ages to the Restoration and the French Revolution.

Protected by a double enclosure of fortifications, the building surrounded by moats was in turn enlarged, embellished but also partly demolished.

Classified as a Historic Monument since 1992, this Renaissance-style royal castle is well worth a visit.

 

A magnificent park


During your visit to the Château d'Époisses, don't miss a stroll through the wooded park, which combines a rose garden, formal gardens, an English garden and flowerbeds.

From Easter to All Saints' Day, the air is filled with a symphony of colours and sweet scents.

 

Famous inhabitants


The Queen of the Franks, the Dukes of Burgundy, Louis de Bourbon (Prince de Condé), the Marquise de Sévigné... all these famous people have one thing in common: they lived in the Château d'Epoisses.

Follow in their footsteps and discover their history!
