Château de Nesmy

To make a day of it

Château de Nesmy stands in Nesmy (Vendée), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, fourth quarter of the 18th century, first half of the 19th century). Adult admission costs 5 EUR. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

A few kilometres from La Roche-sur-Yon, the château de Nesmy stands on a site occupied since the Middle Ages, largely reshaped between the late 18th and the 19th century. The main draw is the park, a 45-hectare estate laid out by nurseryman André Leroy and later extended by the Bühler brothers, with its ponds, canal and sightlines leading to chosen viewpoints. The present facades, with their towers and pavilions, owe their appearance to 19th-century work by architects Liberge and then Guillerot.

What to know

• Only the park is open to visitors, the château itself remains a private residence.
• Adult admission is 5 euros.
• The estate has been listed as a historic monument since 2008, covering the facades, roofs, outbuildings and garden features.
• The grounds are suited to walking, with a path running through the park and its laid-out viewpoints.
