Château de Chéronne stands in Tuffé Val de la Chéronne (Sarthe), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: Middle Ages). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The château de Chéronne stands in the commune of Tuffé Val de la Chéronne, in the Sarthe department, on a site known since the Middle Ages. The building grew in stages around a 15th-century gatehouse, later extended in the 16th century by a wing that still bears the hallmarks of its time: a massive tower, arrow slits and a spiral staircase. The estate, held by the same family since the 14th century, now combines old remains with an active domain, between ongoing restoration and hospitality activities.
What to know
- The gatehouse of the château has been listed as a historic monument since 1991.
- The estate has belonged to the same family since the 14th century and remains a working private property.
- Access to the site mainly takes place through events organised by the domain, such as guided visits, concerts or seminars.
- A restoration campaign is underway on the gatehouse, dated to 1550.
- The domain also includes cottages and guest rooms, which are separate from a visit of the monument itself.
