Château de Gonneville stands in Gonneville (Manche), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 16th century, 17th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Gonneville castle stands in a wooded valley of the Val de Saire, near the Saint-Martin church, in the commune of Gonneville-Le Theil. Several building periods can be traced here: the square keep and gatehouse from the 14th century, the remains of the old fortified castle with its five towers, and the main residence built in the 16th century by the Pirou family. The moat and its bridge, along with outbuildings such as the bakehouse and fruit store, recall the everyday life that once surrounded the estate.
