EXCLUSIVE - LEGENDARY FORTRESS OF VEAUCE IN THE HEART OF ALLIER - MH - MORE THAN 1000 YEARS OF HISTORY(S) - ON A ROCKY Spur - SPLENDID VIEW - 8.3 HA - MONUMENT IN RISK Known to be the residence of Louis the Pious, Western emperor in the 9th century. The location of the Veauce castle has existed since the Gallo-Roman era; springs still in water dating from this period are also visible in a cellar of the castle. In the 9th century, the castle was the summer residence of Louis the Pious, son of Charlemagne, emperor and king of the Franks. The fortress underwent numerous periods of construction and reconstruction: in the 11th, 13th then at the end of the 15th century, beginning of the 16th century when the lordship of Veauce was established as a barony. The castle then depended on Louis II of Bourbon, on the death of the constable Charles III of Bourbon (in 1527), the lordship returned to the fold of the Crown. It was not until the 19th century that Veauce shined again with the arrival of Charles de Cadier de Veauce, an influential politician and friend of the Duke of Morny, who had the castle restored in a neo-Gothic and neo-Renaissance style, he is also behind the construction of the current stables as well as the installation of a riding school in a semi-circular part of the fortress. It was also he who had the park developed by the Count of Choulot. Of the medieval fortress, what remains is the high keep, the towers and curtain walls, part of the covered walkway, as well as the kitchens. Despite its appearance as a medieval fortress, Baron de Veauce was able to modernize the place in the style of the 19th century. In the 20th century under the leadership of the penultimate owner, the castle saw the birth of the legend of Lucie, a ghost seen many times, who made the place and its owner at the time famous, Mr. Tagori 'of the Tour' (It was Eugène de Cadier de Veauce who sold the castle to Mr. Tagori in 1972). The castle is made up of four wings: An old wing on three levels and several basement levels. This building dates from the medieval period of the castle and was largely remodeled in the 19th century but still has 15th century elements, such as fireplaces and mullioned windows. The east wing is served by a circular staircase located in an hors d'oeuvre tower next to which is the castle chapel (probably a simple oratory). On the ground floor as well as on the first floor a large corridor serves all the living rooms. The noble floor located on the 1st floor. The second level, reserved for servants, has been partly redeveloped by the current owners. The basement contains the old kitchens of the medieval castle as well as a series of cellars. There is also a cistern (source?) which dates back to Gallo-Roman times. A 19th century wing fitted out in a neo-renaissance style. It is identical in layout to the old wing. It is in this part of the monument that the Duke of Morny was housed while he built the Château de Nades in Puy-de-Dôme. The other two wings, partly collapsed, are outbuildings, garages and stables built on old buildings. All of these 4 wings are surrounded by a curtain wall and fortification towers dating between the 13th and 15th centuries. Battlements and the development of a clock tower were added in the 19th century. Around the fortress there are various developments and buildings: To the east, a large terrace with stairs constituted the main access to the castle probably from the 18th century. An entrance with a lodge and large gate was built in a troubadour style in the 19th century (another lodge, known as the 'Lion Lodge', constitutes the entrance at the east end of the park). To the West, an old tower transformed into an icehouse, as well as a final entrance with a lodge and gate (known as the 'Little Lodge'). The 8.3 hectare park is made up of remarkable trees, the river 'la Veauce' passes through the middle of the estate. Buildings, probably from the 19th century, have been left abandoned: A mill, a metal greenhouse, various buildings. It is currently under an official work order from the State to carry out emergency work which will give the new owner time to carry out its work programme.

The ruins of a 15th-century chateau, listed as a Historical Monument, and its outbuildings, in the heart of the historic Bourbonnais region, near Vichy.

A roofless tower can be glimpsed between the few ancient oak trees that border the road, as well as a tall chimney, which a grove of trees does not succeed in hiding completely. Further on, the estate’s former farm, still operational, guards the driveway bordered by oak and walnut trees, which leads to the property.

All of the buildings – chateau, dwelling, dovecote, bread oven, barns and stables – combined with the moats and the luxuriant vegetation form a private and timeless oasis of calm.
