Château d'Arnouville stands in Gommerville (Eure-et-Loir), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century, 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The château d'Arnouville stands in Gommerville, Eure-et-Loir, built in its current form in the early 18th century for René II Choppin, a criminal lieutenant at the Châtelet in Paris. A fire in 1848 led to the rebuilding of the main facade, now carried on a wide balcony above a colonnade, following earlier alterations made around 1780. During the Second World War the estate served as a youth centre and sheltered an active resistance network, and it suffered damage during the fighting. Visitors can see the staircase, the two symmetrical pavilions, the moats with their stone walls, the entrance gate and a walled park.
