Along the road, this beautiful 18th century building catches the eye.
You can visit the castle. You will admire its furnished interior and enjoy the large terrace of the house.

The Old Castle of Meslay was an old fortress of the 15th century evolving into a pleasure castle in the 16th and 17th centuries.
Henri IV, young king of France, was welcomed there by its owner, René de Fromentières, from November 15 to 20, 1589, during the siege of Vendôme, then in the hands of the Catholic League, which ended in a real bloodbath.
