Description
70km from the West of Paris - Château Louis XIII early 17th century - Former hotel with 32 rooms - 1 hour from Paris - Normandy - Giverny - Vernon. In a 21-hectare park 70km from Paris, this proud castle from the beginning of the 17th century with brick and stone architecture in very beautiful dry moats presents a high-quality interior decor which has preserved its old elements and the memory of the American diplomat who lived there with the Russian princess whom he had saved from Russia during the revolution of 1917. The castle stands opposite a wrought iron gate, surrounded by dry moats which we step over to enter the large U-shaped courtyard of honor. The castle is presented by a large central main building between two pavilions with hipped roofs and two wings of common areas with arcades, all punctuated by square turrets. The general U-shaped layout, the brick and stone architecture, and the state rooms on the first floor are contemporary with the first Palace of Versailles built for Louis XIII around 1624. On the park side, the facade presents the main building between two corner pavilions and two corbelled watchtowers, very beautiful moats across the entire facade of the building. Two pepperpot towers border the access to the main courtyard. The ground floor has a crossing entrance hall on a floor of cabochons, opening onto the park at the rear. A vast wooden staircase hall typically Louis XIII, with a straight banister, and wooden balustrade. A large and very beautiful medieval funerary slab and a commemorative stele decorate the hall.
