To make a day of it

Château de Fondat stands in Saint-Justin (Landes), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century, 19th century). Adult admission costs 10 EUR. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Saint-Justin, in the Landes region, the château de Fondat stands on a site occupied by local lords since the Middle Ages, though the building itself was rebuilt in the mid-17th century after being destroyed twice, then altered in the 19th century in a neo-Renaissance style. The visit extends well beyond the main house, taking in a set of notable outbuildings: an armagnac cellar, a dovecote, a pavilion, a fountain and a fish pond, along with a park of two-hundred-year-old trees. Among them, a Caucasian elm nicknamed 'Gulliver', over four centuries old and officially recognised as a remarkable tree, stands out for its tangled, sky-reaching branches.
