To make a day of it

Château de Launay stands in Louresse-Rochemenier (Maine-et-Loire), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. No visits are on record for this building.

The château de Launay stands in Louresse-Rochemenier, in Maine-et-Loire, on the site of an earlier medieval stronghold burned down during the French Revolution. Rebuilt in 1830 by the Marquis Méry de Contades, it was later extended by his son with a matching wing and surrounded by a hundred-hectare park laid out around 1870. Now in private hands, the estate also served for decades as a rest home, a use that ended in 2008.
