To make a day of it

Château de Chastellier-Barlot stands in Les Velluire-sur-Vendée (Vendée), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 16th century, 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Standing on a low rise above the Poitevin marsh, the château de Chastellier-Barlot combines remnants of a medieval stronghold with a Renaissance rebuilding carried out in the late 16th century. Two original towers still frame the main house, which has been given a restored roof after decades of varied use. The site reflects a long working history, moving from seigneurial residence to a dairy operation.
