    The Château Verdun is a medieval fortress located at an altitude of 1,350 metres above sea level in the commune of Saint-Oyen, in the Valle d’Aosta region. The castle is owned by the canons of the Grand Saint Bernard and has served as a guest house for nine centuries.
    The architecture of the Château Verdun is square and massive. It was originally built in the 10th and 11th centuries and is located on the road to the village of Flassin. Although it is lower than the main road of the village, it still occupies a prominent position at 1,350 metres above sea level. The castle was originally given to the monks of the Hospice du Grand-Saint-Bernard by Amédée III in 1137. It served as an agricultural annex to the hospice and as a resting place for travellers and pilgrims.
