To make a day of it

Château Boulard stands in Biarritz (Pyrénées-Atlantiques), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Biarritz, Château Boulard is a private villa built in the last quarter of the 19th century by Joseph Louis Duc, architect of the Paris Palace of Justice, and completed after his death by François Roux. Its eclectic style blends Renaissance motifs with Mediterranean influences, featuring a central patio ringed by columns, a domed round tower, an octagonal tower, and a terrace with paired columns. The facades and roofs, listed as historic monuments, still bear their original decoration, including mascarons and a modillion cornice.
