About Château de La Ferté-Saint-Aubin

The Château de La Ferté-Saint-Aubin is a privately owned 17th-century castle in the Sologne region, 22 km south of Orléans. Built by the Saint-Nectaire family between the late 1500s and mid-1600s, the property includes the older "petit château" and a larger main building with flanking pavilions surrounded by moats. The Guyot family has owned and restored the castle since 1987, opening it to the public to fund ongoing conservation work.

Jean Renoir filmed "La Règle du jeu" (The Rules of the Game) at this château in 1939. The film is consistently ranked among the greatest ever made, and its portrayal of aristocratic leisure and social class tensions mirrors the castle's own history as a noble residence.
