The Chateau d'Essalois is a restored castle overlooking a dammed portion of the Loire River, Lake Grangent. The castle stands on a natural strategic strong point, inhabited by mankind since time immemorial.
The castle, by its size and its position, occupies one of the strong points of the Gorges of the Loire. Its tower offers a splendid view of the landscape, including the Grangent lake and the Chateau de Grangent below.
