The Château de Bois Dauphin stands at Précigné, in the Sarthe, on the land that gave its name to the Laval-Bois-Dauphin branch of the Montmorency-Laval family. Urbain de Laval, marquis de Sablé, lord of Bois-Dauphin and Précigné, a soldier and diplomat born in 1557, took his title from this estate. Old accounts also mention a notable library kept there, consulted by the writer Pierre Massé in his study of the religious disputes of his day.
