In Chemillé-en-Anjou, the Chanzeaux château combines an 18th-century regency-style residence with troubadour-style additions from the mid-19th century, featuring octagonal towers and tapering roofs inspired by an idealised Middle Ages. Inside, visitors find salons, a library and a chapel, along with Vendée war mementoes and a gallery of paintings tracing the history of the owning families and of Anjou. The estate includes a park laid out in the 19th century, outbuildings, a gatehouse and an old bridge over the Hyrôme.
