# Château de Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier

Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier, Ille-et-Vilaine, Bretagne

Château de Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier stands in Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier (Ille-et-Vilaine), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first quarter of the 13th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Set on a hilltop overlooking the valley toward Fougères, the ruins of Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier castle recall one of the strongholds that once guarded the borders of the Duchy of Brittany. Built in the early 13th century on the orders of Peter I of Brittany, the fortress originally had ten towers and a massive keep before being deliberately dismantled by Charles VIII in 1490, following the Breton defeat at the Battle of Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier. Only a slice of the keep still stands today, along with traces of the two surrounding walls.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
