| Home of the "de Sales" family since 1559, this castle houses the most extensive collection of artefacts belonging to Saint-François de Sales, and pays homage to the founder of the movement for the unification of Italy -the Duke of Cavour-. The complete tour from the Keep to the "Knights room" of the 11th-13th century, will convince you that this is a well maintained and authentically restored castle. | |||||||||
