Our history
Dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries, Château de Montflour was once the seat of a lordship in the Combraille region. The latest additions to the property were made between 1880 and 1895 by Ludovic Souchard, a prominent lawyer from the nearby town of Montluçon.
In 2020, South Africans Christo Lindeque and his late wife Elbe acquired Château de Montflour, postponing their retirement plans to restore this historical gem. Their vision: to transform Château de Montflour into an exclusive venue for bespoke events and unique accommodation experiences.
The château is partially registered as a historical monument, an official recognition of its significance. While this adds complexity to restoration efforts, it underscores the importance of preserving its heritage.
