CHC CHATEAU ROYAL DE ST-SATURNI
Place de l Ormeau Departementale 8SAINT-SATURNIN, France 63450
The Royal Castle of Saint Saturnin is part of one of The Most Beautiful Villages of France, within the Parc des Volcans. It is facing one of the five major roman churches of Auvergne and has great views on this medieval village and the surrounding hills. It was the residence of the Count of Auvergne who had its own regional court. As such, it belonged to the Queen Catherine of Medicis and then to Marguerite of Valois ?the famous Queen Margot who gave it later to the King Louis XIIIth. This well restored and impressive medieval fortress is a perfect example of the Middle Age military architecture: triple walls, ramparts, towers with crenels and machicolations. It was built during the XIIIth century, then enlarged and embellished during the next two centuries, under the influence of the Renaissance, with large windows and French gardens in the park. It has been classified as a Historical monument and can be visited: a way to get inside and to discover its genuine oak made XVth century framework, its large furnished historical rooms or the Queen Catherine?s vaulted bedroom. As a guest, you will be welcomed by the owners and feel at home. You will stay in the oldest part of the castle and enjoy large, comfortable and quiet bedrooms, furnished with antiques and viewing the village, the main courtyard and/or the park. The owners will do their very best to help you discover one of the most authentic part of France, its wild nature and its beautiful castles or churches, as well as its museums, leisure parks, and places where to sail or to play golf.
