Located in the Picardy village of Droizy, approximately 1 hour 30 minutes from Paris and close to Soissons, Château de Droizy is a castle complex listed as a Historic Monument since 1996.

The fully restored, 22-metre-high cylindrical 14th-century keep has four vaulted levels, reached by a spiral staircase carved into the masonry, and is topped by a contemporary glass roof approved by the Historic Monuments Commission. The rampart walk offers 360-degree panoramic views.
