The castle is one of the largest in Normandy. It has been a listed building since 1927. From the free car park, a gravel path leads first to a gatehouse, then to the square castle, which is as defensive as it is representative and stands next to the small castle garden and a pasture. Beyond the castle stretches the beech and oak forest of the Forêt d’Ecouves, which is part of the Normandy-Maine Regional Nature Park. Inside, the Château de Carrouges invites you to travel through three centuries. The dining room with its marble fireplace and the bishops’ room with its wood-paneled prayer chamber are particularly beautiful.
