Castles are an important part of the Saône-&-Loire landscape. Medieval fortresses
and Renaissance edifices dot Southern Burgundy’s Castle Road, inviting the
traveller to discover 17 manors filled with history. In Couches, the renowned
Marguerite of Burgundy’s Castle symbolises power, while the Chateau at Cormatin
has preserved the most sumptuous Louis XIII-style apartment in France. Madame
de Sévigné referred to the majestic Sully residence as «the most beautiful
courtyard in the kingdom». And the Château de Drée is dubbed
«Brionnais’ little Versailles».
