    In 1869, the Marist Brothers purchased the castle and its grounds. They raised the body of the central building by one floor. The castle was then acquired by the city in 1906. In 1914, it became a military hospital and from 1940 to 1960, a modern college.

    The castle now houses a music school and meeting rooms. Many areas are vacant. The Ministry and the public agency for cultural cooperation (aida) conducted a feasibility study for the establishment of a European Cultural Exchange Center in the building.
    If you take a walk in the park in the afternoon, you can hear the musicians practicing.

      From here you have a beautiful view of the roofs of La Côte-Saint-André. Of this castle, this garden with the beautiful view is probably the best. The castle itself is defaced by an unbelievable structural sin. (see pictures)

        The city is pretty, with an impressive wooden market hall
