About Château de Saconay
In the Monts du Lyonnais, at Pomeys in the Rhône, the Château de Saconay is a handsome Renaissance château, notable for its elegant arcaded gallery and its fine architecture set in the green hills west of Lyon. With origins reaching back to the Middle Ages and rebuilt in the 16th and 17th centuries, the château preserves the character of a noble country residence, its towers, courtyard and gallery evoking centuries of aristocratic life. Set amid the peaceful farmland and wooded hills of the Lyonnais, it offers a charming glimpse of heritage away from the city. Elegant, historic and beautifully sited in the green countryside, the Château de Saconay is a delightful piece of Renaissance architecture in the Monts du Lyonnais, a rewarding stop for lovers of châteaux and quiet landscapes in the hills west of Lyon.
