To make a day of it

Château de Marigny-le-Cahouët stands in Marigny-le-Cahouët (Côte-d'Or), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century, 15th century, 16th century, second half of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The château de Marigny-le-Cahouët stands on flat ground in the north of the Côte-d'Or, roughly sixty kilometres from Dijon. Begun in the 12th century, it was reworked during the 15th and 17th centuries as advances in artillery called for stronger defences. A private property, it has served as a film set, notably for a version of The Three Musketeers and for Angélique, marquise des anges.
