Meursault Castle
Highlight • Castle
During the Second World War, Meursault was very close to the free zone. It is for this reason that part of the plot of the famous fictional film La Grande Vadrouille is located in Meursault, where the heroes of the film will try to cross the line of demarcation.

This is what one imagines of a castle: battlements, towers, and curtain walls. What a contrast with the vineyards stretching out in front of the castle, full of chardonnay grapes.

The origins of Château de Meursault date back to the 11th century. At that time, Robert I, Duke of Burgundy and son of King Robert II of France, granted the fief of Moulin Foulot to one of his squires. From the 12th to the 16th century, the fief frequently changed hands in the course of power struggles between the Duchy of Burgundy and the French king. In 1645, Pierre Legoux de La Berchère, Lord of La Rochepot, acquired the estate belonging to the lordship of Mazeray.

This beautiful ensemble has its origins at the end of the 12th century. It underwent significant transformations during the 15th century, notably to make it habitable. The castle is open to visits without appointment in July and August (closed on Mondays). Outside of this period, only planned group visits are possible. The estate also offers tastings and a treasure map to create with the family.
