The château de Cirey, in Cirey-sur-Blaise in the Haute-Marne department, owes its reputation to Voltaire's stay there as a guest of Émilie du Châtelet, during which he had a wing added to the house in the 1730s. Visitors can see a complete domestic estate, from the main house rebuilt from 1642 onward to its farm buildings and park, including the small theatre the philosopher had installed for himself. The property, still lived in by its owners, is shown to visitors by them.
