    Bouligneux castle is a typical example of fortified houses built in the Dombes and Bugey regions in the 14th century. During the revolution it was almost demolished, but the local municipality saved it and used it as a farm. The fortified tower was a compromise, however, and it was reduced by one storey, hence the displaced shape of the tower's roof.

    The 14th century fortress, remodeled at the
    beginning of the 17th century and whose towers, feudal symbols, were trimmed during the Revolution
    is a fine example of a fortified house in Dombes.


    The castle built by Girard de La
    Palud remained in the family for four centuries:
    set on a cliff, four towers and a round keep connected by curtain walls, all in Savoyard squares, characteristic of
    military or private construction.
    in Bresse.


    If it survived the Revolution, it was because the
    commune then turned it into a grain store.

    Fortified house dating from the 14th century. Curious beveled shape of the cylindrical tower, topped during the Revolution.
