To make a day of it

Château d'Écharcon stands in Écharcon (Essonne), in the Île-de-France region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first half of the 18th century, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The Château d'Écharcon stands in this village in the Essonne department, along the Rue des Sablons. The present building dates largely from the 18th century, but the most notable feature of the estate is its nymphaeum, a 17th-century garden structure preserved within the park. This ornamental construction, older than the château itself, is the element that carries heritage protection.
