The oldest building within the grounds of the Château de la Douye is what appears to be part of the “Grand Hôtel” built by King John II the Good in 1344 and partially destroyed during the 100 Years' War. John II liked Bethisy which he called his “desert”. He made numerous stays there. The Château de la Douye is more recent. It is described as a composite manor, made up of two buildings at right angles: one very simple, is from the 17th century; the other contains the chapel whose window with flamboyant tracery retains stained glass. At the intersection a 15th century staircase turret. The history of the castle is little known. The first owners seem to have been the Anthonis, lords of Douye. Around 1475, Gilles Anthonis, Lord of Douye, Baron and Vémars, was Notary and Secretary to King Louis XI and hereditary Gruyer of Béthisy, in the forest of Cuise. Subsequently, for example, it was the turn of Berthelemy (1570), Le Doux (1655) and Beaurain (1762). More recently, La Douye welcomed the Missionary Sisters of the Holy Spirit. Numerous works have now completely transformed the interiors. The stained glass window is also more modern. Around 1820 the arms of Charles VI and VII were visible on the turret and in the chapel. Charles VI, the beloved or the madman, king of France from 1380 to 1422. Charles VII, the victorious, king of France from 1422 to 1461.
