Английская Википедия:Château de Chazeron
The Château de Chazeron is a castle situated in the commune of Loubeyrat in the French département of Puy-de-Dôme,[1] Шаблон:Convert north-west of Châtel-Guyon.[2]
Originally a medieval castle, Chazeron was altered in the 17th century by the architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart. He built a staircase on the site of the keep and added an arcaded gallery. The moat was filled in, three of the external walls were demolished and two wings were added.[2]
During the Second World War, Léon Blum, Georges Mandel, Édouard Daladier, Paul Reynaud and Maurice Gamelin were imprisoned in the castle in 1942 before their appearance at the Riom Trial.[2]
Today, the castle is a cultural centre, exhibiting drawings and avant-garde furniture. The keep offers views over the Sardon valley and the Limagne plain.[2]
The castle has been listed as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture since 1944.[1]
