château de Ray-sur-Saône
The castle of Ray-sur-Saône is a former castle dating from the 10th century rebuilt in classical style in the 18th century, located in Ray-sur-Saône in Burgundy-Franche-Comté (classified village "City of character of Burgundy-Franche-Comté"). The castle belongs to the department of Haute-Saône, since the donation of Diane Baconnière de Salverte on May 29, 2015. It is in perfect condition of conservation; the park is open free of charge to visit.
It is one of the most beautiful castles in the region because of its interior and exterior richness. The castle has been classified as historical monuments since November 2009. The old fortress has undergone various transformations over the centuries and retains traces of each era crossed, even though it was badly damaged by the Ten Years' War.
Essentially, it is a 1720 and later building. However, one can easily guess what is no longer, such as the ditches surrounding the castle, now filled, or the drawbridge with which one still sees the location.
