Château de la Roche-Mailly stands in Requeil (Sarthe), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The château de la Roche-Mailly stands in Requeil, in the Sarthe department, on the site of a medieval estate once known as la Roche-de-Vaux. Rebuilt between 1836 and 1842 for the Comte de Mailly Nesle, its present appearance is the work of architect Pierre-Félix Delarue, who gave the facades a Gothic-inspired decoration. Round and square towers frame the main building and its wings.
