Overlooking the valley of La Tour-du-Pin, nested in the heart of more than 200 hectares of forests, meadows and ponds, the Vallin Castle, a haven of peace and greenery, offers a preserved natural setting. Built in the 14th century, by the Vallin family who owned it directly for five centuries, it is a private historic residence, which was partly redesigned and embellished in the 18th century. The murals in the neo-Gothic lounge and romantic dining room are unique in the area, as is the fountain and the tuff cave fireplace. In the park, the linden alley, with its 300 meters of length, its 70 magnificent trees and its 2 alleys of charmiles and romantic holly, the majestic cedars of Lebanon, offer a preserved natural setting. Located on the edge of the Vallin forest, the property can be the starting point of various family hikes.
For twenty years, the Vallin Castle has been the subject of a major restoration campaign that has earned it the labels "Patrimoine Historique" and "Patrimoine en Isère" as well as national awards "VMF-Jeunes" in 2000 and "VMF-Barclays Bank" in 2011.
The building has obtained the label "Patrimoine en Isère", rewarding the heritage quality of a building of departmental interest.
