Couterne Castle is a 16th century castle which was the home of Jehan de Frotté, chancellor of Marguerite de Navarre. The castle is surrounded by a 20 hectare park with more than 3 km of wooded trails which offer a peaceful and relaxing walk. You can also visit a museum inside the castle which displays 250 objects related to the history of the region, such as costumes, weapons and documents. The museum is open from July to August, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., except Mondays and Sundays. The entrance price is €4 for adults and free for children.

It's beautiful and well-maintained. The driveway to the west rear gate reminds me of the book "The Great Maulne."
