About the Venue

Château de Maulmont is steeped in rich history, dating back to the 13th century when it was a Templar stronghold built by Renaud de Vichy after returning from the Crusades. Located on the hills overlooking the Valley of the River Allier, it has preserved elements from its original structure, including the Templar’s crest above the archway. Over centuries, the chateau has transitioned through noble families and significant renovations, including transformation into a hunting lodge by Princess Adelaide Louise d’Orléans in 1830.

Today, Château de Maulmont is a beautifully renovated estate that offers a magical setting for various events. The chateau, surrounded by lush gardens and located in a 22-hectare private estate, is an ideal location for dream weddings and luxury events. It is situated centrally in France, just 12 km south of the UNESCO spa town of Vichy and 35 km north of Clermont-Ferrand, making it accessible for guests from across France and beyond.
