The Château d'Antoulin is a monument located in the commune of Champis, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The available sources do not specify its time of construction or detailed architecture, limiting the understanding of its specific historical role. In this region, castles have often served as seigneurial residences or strategic points for controlling rural areas.
