Knowing its History

The historic Château de Tanlay is one of the finest examples of Renaissance architecture in Burgundy.

Residence of the family of Admiral de Coligny during the wars of religion, it was completed by Michel Particelli d'Hemery, and became, at the end of the 17th century, the property of the Marquis de Tanlay.

Famous in particular for its trompe l'oeil gallery and for its frescoes in the League Tower, the Château de Tanlay offers a guided tour inside, rich in furniture and wall decorations.
