For this 5th edition of the event "La Nuit des Châteaux", which takes place in several French provinces, but also in Europe,
Young and old alike are invited to discover the rich and diverse heritage of castles, and in particular the heritage of northern Charente with its most important representative: the Château de
Saveilles.
On Saturday, October 28, 2023, we'll be offering a guided tour of the château by night.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Since 1984, the European Heritage Days have been a major cultural event held on the 3rd weekend in September, demonstrating the public's interest in its history. Every year, 17,000 monuments come
alive thanks to public and private initiatives.
These days are an opportunity to meet the enthusiasts, both volunteers and professionals, who work on a daily basis to recognize, safeguard and showcase our heritage.
The 40th European Heritage Days will take place on September 16 and 17, 2023.
The European Heritage Days are coordinated at national level by the Ministry of Culture, and in each region by the Regional Directorates of Cultural Affairs (DRAC).

The "Rallye des Grand-mères automobiles" (Grandmother car rally) is about to make a stop at Château Saveilles for a visit that will enable visitors to discover an automotive heritage made up of pre-1940 vintage vehicles, and the historical heritage represented by Château Saveilles.
Like our built heritage, vintage vehicles are part of our national heritage.
But who are these automotive grandmothers? The oldest was born in 1919, the youngest in 1930.
You can also take part in a guided tour of the château's exterior and chapel, led by the owner. Book your guided tour here.
