Known as a ‘giant’ amongst châteaux, Brissac is the tallest in France! With 7 floors and 204 rooms, it deserves its notoriety. Today it is the home of 13th Duke of Brissac and his family.
Set in parkland that alternates between open large space and shade, the Château de Brissac is an amazing spectacle. Its dazzling decor and gold leaf ceiling frescos competing with precious memorabilia stretching back over the centuries alongside antique furniture. There are surprises too, including the delightful Belle Epoque theatre: a 200-seat opera auditorium built by the Marquise de Brissac at the end of 19th century.
Wine has always played an important part in everyday life at the château. Today, it has 28 hectares (nearly 70 acres) under cultivation producing three quite distinct AOC wines with the label of ‘Château de Brissac’.
