Posanges

France, France

---

Posanges is a very small rural village in the Côte-d’Or department of Burgundy, eastern France, with a population of around 50 residents.

Surrounded by farmland and rolling countryside, it offers a quiet and traditional Burgundian setting. The village is best known for the Château de Posanges, a remarkably well-preserved 15th-century castle built between 1440 and 1445 by Guillaume du Bois, a nobleman connected to the court of Duke Philip the Good of Burgundy.

The castle, with its round towers and surrounding moats, is protected as a historic monument and is the village’s main landmark. Despite its small size, Posanges preserves a rich medieval heritage and reflects the history of rural Burgundy. Its castle and peaceful countryside make it an appealing destination for visitors interested in French history and architecture.
