To make a day of it

Château de Dormans stands in Dormans (Marne), in the Grand Est region of France. Admission is free. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Dormans, on the Champagne route in the Marne department, this château retains two corner towers from a medieval stronghold, now joined to a main building reworked in a classical style by the Broglie and Ligne families. The estate is chiefly known for its park, home to the Memorial of the Battles of the Marne, a chapel commemorating the fighting of the First World War. Owned by the town since 1999, the château now houses the local tourist office, while the grounds, crossed by a stream and a pond, include an orchard, a rococo waterfall and an arboretum.
