Our agency, a subsidiary of eXp Realty, world leader in real estate, offers you a magnificent castel in the heights of the Ain plain.
Built in the 13th century, the castel is a recognized historic monument, having been listed as an Ismh (Inventaire Supplémentaire des Monuments Historiques).
In 1595, the building was sacked by the troops of Maréchal de Biron. In 1840, a fire destroyed the château's outbuildings. In 1947, another fire damaged the roofs. Madame de Belvey, born Constance de la Teyssonnière, was responsible for the restoration of this sublime castle. She was advised by architects Dulin and Bossant from Lyon, the latter of whom designed the plans for the basilicas of Ars and Fourvière. And for the record, it was at Richemont that unbreakable glass was invented around 1870 by Alfred de la Batie, grandson of Madame de Belvey.
This property will therefore be appreciated by people who love history, architecture and art.
Owners who want to ensure that history, with a capital H, continues...
