Château de Bois-Bouzon stands in Farges-en-Septaine (Cher), 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). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Château de Bois-Bouzon, built in the 17th century in Berry, is a stone residence constructed for André Lefebvre d'Eaubonne, a Paris magistrate who had recently settled in the region. Architect Jean Lejuge, master builder for Bourges, designed a pavilion with classical lines, featuring a raised ground floor, ashlar windows topped with curved pediments, and a roof adorned with stone dormers. The entrance courtyard, lined with contemporary outbuildings, preserves its stone carriage gate. Inside, two rooms on the ground floor retain their period woodwork.
