In Saint-Gervais-la-Forêt, just outside Blois, this 19th-century residential château stands on a hillside above the village. Built between 1842 and 1847 for the magistrate Louis-Catherine Bergevin, it was long known locally as a place of lavish gatherings. Its history also includes a darker chapter, as German forces used it as a regional command post between 1940 and 1944.
