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.

What the French Ministry of Culture records

Ce manoir du 16e siècle a été reconstruit de 1730 à 1740 : les premiers jardins, d'inspiration italienne, datent de cette époque. Propriété en 1912 d'Henri Gonse, le château a été acheté en 1915 par son cousin Octave Join-Lambert qui l'a fait reconstruire à l'identique en 1920 (mais avec une ossature en béton armé) par François-Benjamin Chaussemiche, architecte en chef du château de Versailles. Les jardins, complétés par Gonse et Join-Lambert en 1912 et 1920 (date de construction de l'orangerie) , présentent aujourd'hui un ensemble d'arbres taillés qui font de ce domaine un haut lieu de l'art topiaire.
