To make a day of it

Château de Buy stands in Antilly (Moselle), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Antilly, in the Moselle department, the château de Buy stands apart from the village, along the road linking Metz to Guénange. What remains to be seen is chiefly its enclosing wall from the mid-16th century, flanked by four square pavilions pierced with loopholes, while the main dwelling, rebuilt in the early 17th century, still holds its courtyard well. Ownership passed through several hands over the centuries, from Protestant merchant families of Metz to noble lineages in the 19th century.
