Description

The Château de Saint-Brisson is a château standing in the French commune of Saint-Brisson-sur-Loire, in the department of Loiret, in the Centre-Val de Loire region.

On the borders of Berry and at the gateway to the Orléanais, it overlooks the left bank of the Loire's floodplain, which dried up when the Loire lateral canal was opened in the late 19th century in the neighbouring commune of Saint-Firmin-sur-Loire.

The Château de Saint-Brisson is the château of the Loire situated furthest upstream on the river.
