Description

Overlooking vineyards in the Seille valley, Château-Chalon grew up around a Benedictine abbey. The Romanesque church of Saint-Pierre and the ruined keep of a castle are highlights. The streets are lined with winemakers’ houses, where the Savagnin grape is used to make vin jaune and the Maison de la Haute-Seille houses an interactive museum on wine. The old cheese factory has tours explaining how unpasteurised cow’s milk cheese comté is made. The former school can be visited too. Beyond the village are walking and biking trails through vineyards and pretty countryside. There are also gourmet walks and several festivals in the summer, with a sound and light show in July.
