Château de Saint-Fargeau
Château de Saint-Fargeau is a 17th-century Renaissance château in Saint-Fargeau, Yonne, in Burgundy, France. The present château is built of pink brick with six large round towers (five capped by open lanterns) and a long classical brick-and-stone corps de logis remodelled by François Le Vau in the mid-17th century. The site is a protected monument historique and has been restored and opened to the public.

The shape it held in its prime.
The château forms an irregular pentagon of curtain walls pierced by six large round pink-brick towers, five topped with open-lantern cupolas; steep conical slate roofs rise above the round towers and a long central brick-and-stone corps de logis displays four storeys of tall rectangular windows with dormers beneath a steep slate roof. The largest Moulin (Jacques Cœur) tower is notably massive and built with a slight inward lean. The château sits within moats and open grounds.
