# Château de Châteaugiron

Châteaugiron, Ille-et-Vilaine, Bretagne

Château de Châteaugiron stands in Châteaugiron (Ille-et-Vilaine), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century, 14th century, 15th century, 16th century, 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

At the heart of Châteaugiron stands a fortress dating back to the turn of the first millennium, with four of its original towers still standing, including a 38-metre keep that still overlooks the town. Visitors can see the Romanesque choir of a 12th-century castle chapel, a rare survival of its kind in Brittany, along with fragmentary murals spanning the Middle Ages to the 17th century. Remodelled into a country residence by the Le Prestre family in the 18th century, the site now houses the town hall and the Gourdel museum, dedicated to sculptors Julien and Pierre Gourdel.
