Magnificent

Lookout post first built in the 12th century to defend the entrance to Gâtinais.

A rather original historical site.

The chateau was built in 1760. Outside the perimeter you will see a rather impressive gate which still bears the coat of arms of the original owner and builder, Noël Jacques Michel de Brion.

Barbey Castle was built in the 17th century. It is now a private property but historically belonged to the French botanist Chevalier Louis-Marie Aubert du Petit-Thouars.

Fort dating from the 11th and 12th century, mainly consisting of an enclosure (originally 6 m high and 1.3 m wide) surmounted by towers at the corners. It was remodeled in the 15th century, during the Hundred Years War, then confiscated during the French Revolution, before being returned to its original owners in 1937.

Superb castle worth the detour.

The first Château de Challeau was a fortified building built in the 11th century to the 12th century with a curtain wall 6m high and 1.3m thick which encloses an area of approximately 30m by 24m. Small in size, its particularity is due to the rounded shape at the base of the watchtowers. It is one of the rare fortifications built on the orders of Philippe 1er which still remains in a correct state today. The site can be visited during Heritage Days.
