Extract from the Mérimée record of the Ministry of Culture: Historical Description The fortified house belonged in 1362 to Camus de Chenay, who engaged in brigandage in the Isle of Crémieu. The Governor of Dauphiné, Raoul de Louppy, recovered the house to strengthen the fortifications around the Isle of Crémieu. At the end of the 15th century, the house passed into the hands of the du Molard family until the end of the 17th century. At the beginning of the 18th century, the manor belonged to the family of de la Poype-Saint-Jullin de Grammont. Marie-Anne de la Poype sold by deed of February 16, 1752, the estate of Hautepierre to Abel Faure de Perret, lord of Loras. The current castle was built in the mid-19th century for Augustin de Perret. Upon his death, the castle passed to the Dauphin de Verna family.
