Château de Colembert stands in Colembert (Pas-de-Calais), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
In the village of Colembert, standing between the church and the town hall, this spacious residence was built in the late 18th century for the Comte de Saint Aldegonde. The Boulogne-based architect Giraux Sannier gave it a three-storey elevation, surrounded by wide moats lined with stone balustrades. On the park side, a grand staircase descends in stages and crosses the moat by three arches, while inside, panelled woodwork survives along with an octagonal room known as the red chamber. The building has remained in the hands of the founding family through successive inheritances.
