Virieu Castle

Built in 1010. Military heritage and french gardens characterize this monument which offers visitors some beautiful rooms : you would particularly enjoy Louis XIII's room, the medieval kitchen, the XVIIe chapel and the peculiar dunjeon. Come and discover the Virieu's castle during a one hour visit with our team of tour guide. You will start your visit in front of an impressive entrace door with 2115 original nails, topped by its pediment, bearing the Virieu coat of arms. Then, you will be in the castle's court of honor, just in front of its dungeon. You can see at your right the cannons offered by Louis XIII in 1622, placed under the arcade gallery in brick of Italian style. A few steps and you will be in the peaceful atmosphere of Virieu's chapel. Inside of it, you will discover the Way of the Cross sculpted by Stéphanie de Virieu at the age of 80. With a few steps under the gallery, you can access to the ancient kitchen, which now used as a dining room. You will discover the monumental fireplace with its low arch and its XIIIth century fireback, a souvenir of the ancient Chartreuse de la Sylve Bénite. You will also be able to appreciate its furniture before entering the Great Hall full of history. The King's bedroom, impressive and majestic room, called like that because the King Louis XIII slept there in 1622, has kept its original aspect and part of its furniture. You will then reach the White Room, which should have been a chapel. The visit touch to its end near the dungeon, which is now a memorial place dedicated to the Resistance during German's occupation from 1940 to 1944.

Park of the Saint Jean de Chépy Domaine

Park of the Saint Jean de Chépy Domaine

Surrounding the Saint Jean de Chepy Castle with its 10 hectares, the Domaine's park is an atypical place, combining nature, art and heritage. Private property with event activity, open to visitors free of charge, subject to availability. A 10-hectare preserved natural setting, the Domaine Saint Jean de Chepy park is home to 85 works of art, mainly from the Sculpture Symposiums organized each year since 2007 by the ChépyTerra association. This collection, supplemented by a few works on deposit, constitutes "Le Chant des sculptures" (permanent open-air exhibition). Like the Estate, and its 13th century Castle, the park bears witness to the passage of men and their various activities over the centuries. Through the Orangery, dating from the 18th century and restored, as well as the Beylier turbine from the 18th century, fed by the canal, traces of the industrial activity of the territory and still active today. Crisscrossed by streams, ponds and rivers, it is also home to a very diverse fauna, which has earned it the status of biodiversity refuge LPO (League for the Protection of Birds). A protected natural area, it illustrates the Domain's commitment to sustainable development with the installation of a business apiary, honey trees and an orchard. Thanks to this synergy between nature, art and heritage, the Domaine's park aims to become a place of disconnection and well-being, for businesses and individuals alike.
