Château de Rochecotte stands in Coteaux-sur-Loire (Indre-et-Loire), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 18th century, 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Overlooking the Loire valley at Coteaux-sur-Loire, this 18th-century château owes its present appearance to the Duchess of Dino, who extensively reworked it after 1825. The main building, flanked by two square pavilions, presents a facade with a double colonnaded portico topped by a pediment bearing the Talleyrand coat of arms. A chapel, built in 1840 on the site of the room once occupied by Prince Talleyrand, completes the ensemble along with a terrace decorated with bas-reliefs. The building is now part of a hotel, which shapes how it can be visited.
What to know
- The château currently operates as a hotel and restaurant, which limits free access to the main building.
- The outbuildings, dating from the 19th century, have been listed as historic monuments since 1948.
- A private car park with an electric charging point is available on site.
- No visiting hours or admission fees are provided in the available data.
- The site's interest lies as much in its 18th-century architecture as in its history tied to the Talleyrand family and later owners.
