The Château du Solin is an ancient fortress built in the 12th century by Blanchard de Lorris, a vassal of King Louis VI. The castle, also known as the Château de la Reine-Blanche, is surrounded by a moat and overlooks one of the most beautiful ponds in the region. You can admire the elegant architecture of the main building and the tower, as well as the Romanesque portal of the neighboring church dedicated to Saint Philippe and Saint Loup. The Solin river, which flows at the foot of the castle, has its source in the Bernaudière pond, where legend has it that Queen Blanche of Castile appeared at midnight with her ladies-in-waiting.
