Château de Graveron stands in Graveron-Sémerville (Eure), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Built from 1684 for Philippe Bigot de la Turgère, a councillor at the Norman parliament, this late 17th-century château bears the signature of architect Gennevois. Its brick and stone architecture is set within a landscape composition designed from the outset: park, avenues, forecourt and main courtyard form an estate where transformations from the 18th and 19th centuries remain visible.

What to know

  • Construction occurred between 1684 and 1689, with later modifications including a northern wing rebuilt in 1949.
  • The monument registration covers the main château, its gateway and dovecote, excluding the northern extension.
  • The site combines the main building with its original landscape design: park and avenues form the setting of the château.
