The château de La Gataudière stands in Marennes-Hiers-Brouage, in Charente-Maritime, on land whose origins go back to the Middle Ages, though the present building dates from a rebuilding carried out between 1750 and 1755. The façades display a classical vocabulary of pilasters, capitals and carved pediments, including a triumph of Flora above the central pavilion. Inside, the great salon and dining room retain 18th century decoration: fluted pilasters, painted and carved panelling, overdoor paintings and period Regency fabric.
