To make a day of it

Château de Poligny stands in Forcé (Mayenne), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The château de Poligny stands at Forcé, in the Mayenne department, on an estate that was home to an important seigneury of the county of Laval since the Middle Ages. The present building, largely reworked in the late 19th century, retains an underground funerary chapel built in 1888-1889, its walls lined with white marble. It is this chapel, rather than the château itself, that is listed as a historic monument.
