Château de Tournoël

The Château de Tournoël is a medieval fortified castle partly in ruins in the commune of Volvic, in the Puy-de-Dôme département of France. The castle is located on a rocky mountain spur at an altitude of 594 m in the foothills of the Puy de la Bannière which dominates the Limagne plains (about 350 m altitude above the level of Riom). The Château de Tournoël is privately owned and has been listed as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture since 1889.
