The Château de Fondat is located in a 4 hectare park. The castle park also houses a Grand Pavilion in the Medici style, a 17th century cellar and an 18th century dovecote.

The park is also home to an exceptional collection of rare trees, including a gigantic zelkova, and a century-old Siberian elm, a tree classified as a vulnerable species.

At 2 km from Saint-Justin in the direction of Gabarret le Château, the 4 ha Parc de Fondat overlooks a small valley hidden in the woods. Populated by gigantic trees, this fairytale setting has something to delight young and old alike.
Rebuilt in 1607 and then renovated in the 19th century, the castle and its picturesque architectural outbuildings, all the listed ISMH (Supplementary Inventory of Historical Monuments) are remarkable: the large Medici style pavilion, the 17th century cellar, the water mirror or the 18th century dovecote.
But we will especially remember the Park, the only ISMH classified park in the Landes, and its exceptional collection of rare trees such as a giant zelkova, an ancient Siberian elm labeled "Remarkable Tree of France" and classified as a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List.
