Tanlay is to the north of the Burgundy region, in the Yonne department between Tonnerre and Chatillon-sur-Seine.

The castle was built in the latter half of the 16th century, on the site of an earlier castle, then in ruins - this explains the moats around the castle, and the circular towers, which date from the original castle.

Built in white limestone and with attractive slate roofs, Tanlay castle is a lovely building in a lovely setting.

The surrounding parkland further adds to the setting, and the interior of the chateau - sumptuous and luxurious, with impressive wall paintings - above all the frescoes in the Grand Gallery and in the Tour de la Ligue - all contribute to the pleasures of a visit.

There is an exhibition of contemporary art in a building in the grounds of Tanlay Castle.

The village of Tanlay itself, in front of the castle, is of limited interest although there is a pleasant stretch of canal to xwalk along and a couple of old buildings of interest.

(Note: most parking is along a long shady avenue of trees - along with warnings that branches might fall on your car during stormy weather. You might like to visit Tanlay on a calm day!
