Nestled at the foot of Revermont, the village owes its origin to its castle dating from the 12th century, the ruins of which are still visible. Located on land of wine appellations, we owe it Côtes du Jura, Crémant du Jura, Franche-Comté and Macvin du Jura.

Châtel is intimately linked to the history of the Via Cluny paths. This quiet little village has housed a large religious community. Marked by the presence of the Benedictines of Gigny from 974 to 1359, Manassès III de Coligny made Châtel a Benedictine priory linked to the abbey of Gigny. The abbey of Cluny then named "the prior of Châtel", while the church of Saint-Etienne de Châtel became the seat of a vast parish.

Located on the first foothills of the Jura massif, the Château de Chevreaux is perched on a promontory at an altitude of 470 metres. It already existed in 1158, and since that date several families have succeeded. In 1637, the French army completely destroyed the site. The castle is in ruins but its reconstruction is in progress thanks to the Friends of Chevreaux Châtel association. Here, you can see different craftsmen at work: stone cutters, ironworkers, blacksmiths.
