An Exceptional Estate for Your Wedding in the Beaujolais Region

Located just 35 minutes from Lyon, the Château de Champ-Renard is a place with a unique history and atmosphere. Built during the feudal period, the château has been a winery since 1765 and still produces its own wines today thanks to its 7.5 hectares of vineyards.

The estate, a popular wedding venue in the Beaujolais region, has undergone several renovations over the centuries, including one in the late 19th century in the Neo-Gothic style by architect Louis Germain.

With its mullioned and pointed-arch windows and its charming English-style park, featuring a giant sequoia and a rock-style bridge, the property exudes an almost timeless romantic atmosphere.

Recently restored to host weddings and events, the Château de Champ-Renard— a venue for castle weddings—has preserved its historical heritage while offering a setting of refined elegance. The decor of the private salons blends works of art and antique furniture with contemporary pieces designed by leading French and Italian designers, reminiscent of a private mansion. As night falls, the château’s façade lights up, setting the stage for an evening filled with magic and emotion…

This is an unique wedding venue near Lyon.

Personalized service for an unforgettable experience

Renting our castle for your wedding allows you to have exclusive use of the entire property and to create a custom event that lives up to your dreams: the non-religious ceremony can be held in the middle of our century-old arbour or in the park beneath the large walnut tree; the reception can be held on the esplanade or in the courtroom; and a wine-tasting workshop can be organized on Sunday… at our wedding venue near Lyon.

Have you chosen a theme for your big day and want to set up the decorations ahead of time? You’re welcome to come in starting at 2 p.m. on Friday so you can approach Saturday with peace of mind and make the most of the moment.

In any case, you’ll receive a complimentary 2-hour personalized consultation to help bring your dream to life. The Château de Champ-Renard offers the services of its partner caterers for the cocktail reception, dinner, and brunch, as well as charming accommodations for the bride and groom and their loved ones.

Upon your arrival, you will be welcomed by our team, who will be available throughout the weekend to assist you with any needs you may have.
