Château de Filières stands in Gommerville (Seine-Maritime), in the Normandie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first half of the 17th century, second half of the 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The château de Filières stands in Gommerville, in the Seine-Maritime department, on land that has remained in the same family since 1467. Its white stone facade, topped with a carved pediment bearing the coats of arms of the Mirville and Chardon de Filières families, dates from the 18th century, though an older wing still recalls the earlier Henri IV-style château it replaced. Visitors can walk through a suite of reception rooms, including a Chinese salon with painted panels and another decorated with woodwork and stucco, as well as a park planted with rhododendrons and a centuries-old beech avenue known as the Cathedral.
