Château d'Angervilliers stands in Angervilliers (Essonne), in the Île-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
In Angervilliers, in the Essonne department, what remains today is not the château itself, which disappeared through its successive rebuildings, but two 17th century outbuildings: the former wine press, now called the orangery, and the manorial dovecote. The estate passed through centuries of eventful history, changing hands among parliamentarians, a minister and a marquise who was a friend of Madame de Récamier, before falling into neglect during the 20th century. Today these remaining structures serve municipal purposes, with the town hall housed in the orangery and the library in the dovecote.
Written from Château d'Angervilliers
What to know
- The original château no longer exists: only the orangery (former wine press) and the dovecote survive and are protected.
- These two buildings now house municipal services, the town hall and the library, and are not set up as a tourist visit.
- The rest of the estate, long left abandoned, has become known among urban exploration enthusiasts, though it is not an area open to the public.
- No opening hours or admission fees apply, since this is not a museum-style monument.
