Facts and practical information

The castle of Bressieux is an ancient fortified castle of the XIIIth century whose vestiges stand on the commune of Bressieux in the department of Isère in the region Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.

The castle was the seat of the barony of Bressieux, one of the four that counted the Dauphiné, erected in marquisate by king Louis XIII in 1612. Built in pink bricks, it is now freely open to the public and is also used nowadays for life-size role-playing games.

The ruins of the old castle are classified as historical monuments by order of August 16, 1904.
