Origin and history

The Château d'Eurre is a monument located in the commune of Saou, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The available sources do not specify its period of construction or its detailed history, making it a still mysterious building for local historians. The castles of this region, often linked to medieval or modern history, generally served as strategic points for the control of territories or residences for local lords.

In Sau, as in other villages of the Drôme, these buildings often reflected the feudal organization or defensive needs of the period, while playing a central role in the economic and social life of the surrounding communities.
