Château des Iris overlooks Bordeaux from a plateau edge in Lormont, Gironde, constructed around 1865 by architect G. Bouluguet on a site with documented history to the 16th century. This refined French classical residence exemplifies late 19th-century country estate design, originally serving as a vacation home with wine production. Initially transformed into a vacation colony in the 1960s, it operated as a municipal children's recreational center; recent years have seen community proposals to restore it as an event venue for weddings and celebrations.
