Aulteribe Castle

Aulteribe Castle has been considered a National Historic Monument of France since 1949. Located in the city of Sermantizon, department of Puy de Dom. It was built at the end of the Middle Ages and is now its full representative. It is owned by the National Monuments Center and is open to visitors all year round.

Throughout the history of its operation, the castle was repeatedly damaged, but at the end of the XIX century it was subject to restoration and some changes. As a result, new elements in the medieval style were added to the structure.

The last private owner of the castle was Pierre de Henry, who in 1954 transferred the building to the state. The interior decorations of the castle are chic. Particularly noteworthy paintings and Chinese porcelain XVII-XIX centuries, as well as Finnish tapestries. Around the building planted a cozy park, which in 1991 was included in the list of world heritage sites.
