Datant du XVe siècle, il est construit par les ducs de Savoie dans le cadre de leur expansion territoriale.
Il connut de nombreux propriétaires et devint " domaine " en 1870 avec Monsieur C.
Le parc fut dessiné en 1872 par l'architecte D .
C'est alors toute une restauration de l'ensemble qui va débuter en 1880 et ce jusqu'en 1901.
Madame H en fait l'acquisition en 1909.
Du point de vue architectural, de nombreuses modifications et restaurations ont été effectuées : le style gothique fleuri ou flamboyant prévaut dans l'ensemble, avec ses tours hautes coiffées d'ardoises et ses toits inclinés.
Le style Renaissance, lui, transparaît au niveau des tapisseries et des terrasses.
Cloître, cour d'honneur, salon d'honneur avec boiseries, jardin d'hiver, roseraie, chemin de ronde Est avec ses échauguettes, etc. sont autant d'éléments du domaine à découvrir.
Les héritiers de Madame H vendent la propriété à l' association fondée par Madame G en 1929.
Aujourd'hui, le château est laissé à l'abandon...

We wanted to find love
We wanted success
Until nothing was enough
Until my middle name was excess
And somehow I lost touch
When you went out of sight
When you got lost into the city
Got lost into the night
I was in need of help
Heading to black out
'Til someone told me run on in honey
Before somebody blows your goddam' brains out
You shop-lifted as a child
I had a model's smile
You carried all my hopes
Until something broke inside
But now we float
Take life as it comes
So will we die of shock?
Die without a trial
Die on Good Friday
While holding each other tight
This is kind of about you
This is kind of about me
We just kind of lost our way
But we were looking to be free
But one day we'll float
Take life as it comes
This is a PJ Harvey song...is simple and silly maybe, but i dont have to think to be agree "We float".
Picture by me model me edition me mememememememe.
We caught these guys hustling on the streets as we got into the Avignon city area. In fact...that's what EVERY group with a stage show were doing. Anyway...this solved the problem of what we were going to do that night.

Les Plans d'eau du Genevray à Thézillieu, alimentés en eau douce principalement, permet de pêcher les carpes, les brochets, les gardons, les rotengles, les perches communes...qui sont tous des poissons d'étangs, de qualité.
Au Genevray, deux étangs cisterciens de l'Abbaye de Saint Sulpice construit à main d'homme en l'an 1234 sur le hameau du Genevray, commune de Thézillieu. Aujourd'hui reconstruit depuis le projet du SIVOM en 1974. Sous la responsabilité de l'Association pour l'exploitation des Etangs de Genevray depuis 1962, bientôt un demi-siècle que la pêche à Thézillieu existe, nous y pêchons carpes, brochets, gardons, rotengles, brèmes, tanches et perches communes, tous des poissons d'étangs, de qualité.
les cartes peuvent être prises sur place, vendues par les gardes - pêche.
Ces deux Plans d'eau sont de tailles respectables, 2,7 hectares en bas et sur le haut de la chute, le grand étang possède, lui, une superficie de 4,7 hectares. Alimentés en eau de source principalement, aucune pollution n'est présente sur ce site remarquable d'une dimension totale de 10 hectares.
Le charme de ses ruelles étroites a attiré beaucoup d'artistes .
Malheureusement en cette période , les ateliers étaient fermés !
St-Claude, le Frasnois, département du Jura
Although it is on what passes for a main road around here, and not far from the tourist hotspot of the cascades de Herrisson, I thought this was a lovely little village, and the view over the lake to the north one of the most stunning of the summer. The church is a delight too, set hard against the road and built into the line of houses. Inded, what appears to be the house next door is, in fact, the chancel, containing the sanctuary.
What is now the nave was a chapel built in 1680. this in turn replaced an earlier building of 1596. At the time, le Frasnois was part of Loulle parish, and a bequest on the feast of the Annunciation by the Mouillard family was conditional on a chapel being established here, dedicated jointly to Stlaude and St Roch. Later, it became part of Chatelneuf parish. The tower was added in 1762, the chancel in 1789; both seem to have been intended to enhance the building's significance as a parish church after parochial status was granted in 1738.
The entrance is in the south side of the tower, and you turn at a sharp right-angle as you enter. The long, low church was almost black inside, but a handy light switch is indicated, and in general the church was very welcoming. Unusually for France, there is even a guidesheet.
There is a sense of being in an ancient space that had been beautified in the Vatican II manner, although in fact the great restoration au goût du jour was in 1955. The modern windows are stunning, and give the church a warmth and depth. They were installed in 1965, and are the work of Jean Vuillemey. The centre of the nave has some of the best chalice memorials in the area, and the best is to Jean-Pierre Amey, the first Priest of le Frasnois parish.
When Desire Monnier came this way in 1843, collecting material for his Annuaire du Jura, he had a wonderful surprise. Who would hope to find magnificent treasures of the middle ages in such a place? he observed. But here, you encounter to your great astonishment gilded and painted reliefs, which represent the principal event sin the life of the Holy Virgin: her Nativity, her Annunciation and her Assumption. There you will also find yourself presented with other reliefs, detached from something larger, that illustrate the birth of the Saviour and the adoration of the magi.
Monnier considered that the work was executed with the greatest art and attention that the middle ages could offer, and that the women were dressed in the style of Raphael's virgins. This debris from a rich monastery, he went on, was acquired in the Vaux country at the time when the reforms of Calvin had shattered Catholicism. He concluded that they had probably come from the monastery of Romain-Moutier.
Today there is no trace of them, so perhaps they are in the museum at Lons. Instead, a simple, pretty east end features a 17th century painting of the Crucifixion flanked by two others in the style of the school of Caravaggio. The gilded wooden statue of Saint-Claud is 18th century, and stands on a 16th century font rescued in recent years from a street in Paris where it had supported a statue of Mary.
On the right hand side of the sanctuary is a reliquary uncovered during the 1955 restoration. It now displays relics of Saint-Claud given to the church in 1722; the are in a gilded leather relic case behind fine ironwork. More fine ironwork surrounds the sanctuary.
This is a stunningly lovely church, with a sense of spirituality and continuity. I liked it very much indeed.
Mon père l'a toujours porté fièrement tout le temps où il a eu ses restaurants...Je le revois facilement...c'est une image marquante de mon enfance...

il est terrible ce bruit

Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759 -1840) was a Flemish painter and botanist renowned for his exquisite watercolors of lilies, roses, and other native plant species. His prolific career spanned the turbulent years of the French Revolution and resulted in the "Raphael of Flowers" being regarded as one of the finest botanical illustrators of all time.
