Château de la Vacherie stands in Barquet (Eure), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument. The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In the hamlet of la Vacherie, in the commune of Barquet, stands a neoclassical residence built around 1810 for a Mr. Martel, designed by the architect Fillette. Its outline recalls Palladian villas, with a compact main block flanked on the east side by a portico with Ionic columns and a grand staircase, and on the west by a projecting oval salon. The restrained decoration, arranged across a base, a noble floor and an attic level, contrasts with the boldness of the overall volumes.
