To make a day of it
Château de Monceaux stands in Méhoudin (Orne), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first half of the 18th century, first quarter of the 20th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In Méhoudin, in the Orne department, the château de Monceaux stands on the site of a 16th century manor, replaced by a residence built between 1730 and 1740 and then rebuilt identically in 1920 by architect François-Benjamin Chaussemiche. The estate is chiefly known for its Italian-inspired gardens, where topiary art, developed since the early 20th century, forms a striking arrangement of clipped trees. A courtyard of honour, terraces, an orangery and orchards complete this listed historic monument.
