A new project for the Gallery: the acquisition of the Château de Peyraud
09.09.25
It is with joy that we share with you today some news that is particularly close to our hearts: we have acquired the magnificent Château de Peyraud , in the Rhône Valley, halfway between Lyon and Valence, where we hope to be able to welcome you soon!

Perched on its rocky spur like a silent guardian of the Rhône Valley, this château watched over its family long before the first wines ripened under the southern sun. Three centuries of history have passed since its walls, erected upon the ruins of a medieval fortress, traded the austerity of ramparts for the elegance of a family home. Today, it stands there, less than an hour from Lyon, sovereign and discreet, offering those who know how to look a panorama where time seems to stand still.


An exceptional setting, where the pieces in our collection will truly come into their own!
A place where every stone tells a story...
The castle welcomes you as if entering a novel. On the garden level, the rotunda ballroom awaits its waltzes, the chapel whispers its secrets, and seven reception rooms in a row, bathed in the light of eighteen French doors, unfold their 60 meters of grace.



Here, the 18th century has left its mark : Louis XV woodwork, delicate plasterwork, fireplaces of golden stone, and those Zuber wallpapers which, despite the years, retain their vibrant colors. The floors creak underfoot, the terracotta tiles gleam in the raking light.

...in a domain where nature engages in dialogue with stone
Around the castle, ten hectares of land unfold in terraces, mysterious undergrowth, and avenues lined with centuries-old linden trees. A pond, once reserved for nymphs, now invites swimming. Below, a flowerbed inspired by a painting by Albert Gleizes creates plays of light and shadow, while clipped boxwood hedges dance around the remains of a forgotten tower.


Why this acquisition?
Because some rare places possess a magic that transcends mere beauty . Because, as we wandered through its rooms and gardens, we dreamed of moments we could share with you: dinners under the stars, weddings in the rotunda, creative workshops in the former stables, an exceptional night in our guest house... so many experiences to help you discover our most beautiful rooms in an exceptional setting.
The Château de Peyraud is not just a new chapter for us. It's an invitation. A promise of encounters and discoveries in a unique setting.
We look forward to seeing you there, to revealing its secrets to you, and to writing the next pages of its story with you.
