A very well-preserved example of medieval military architecture. This castle was built in the 12th century by Robert Dauphin, Count of Auvergne, to defend the Sioule bridge and was enlarged in the 15th century by Gilbert III de LaFayette, Field Marshal of France. The keep and six towers are still preserved. The castle is inhabited by the descendants of the Moré de Pontgibaud family, who have owned it since 1756. At the end of the 19th century, the interior was restored in a harmonious style by Count Caesar III. Website: http://www.chateaudauphin.com

This former fortified castle located 594 meters above sea level on a puy overlooks the Limagne plain. Its role was to monitor and protect Riom and its surroundings. This medieval castle was the property of the counts of Auvergne. It was later a royal castle. This shows its strategic importance in Auvergne. Unique, inside the dwellings, old plasters served as supports for graffiti, depicting a wolf hunt.

The cellars of Châteaugay can measure 10 meters deep, thus guaranteeing the preservation of the wine. The process is clever: they are stone constructions pierced with large wooden gates that hug the sides of the hill. Aeration is done by small ventilation chimneys that come out of the ground.

The center of Volvic is quite charming. It is pleasant to run in the middle of its small streets and its Volvic stone houses.
