To make a day of it

Château de Saint-Symphorien-des-Monts stands in Buais-Les-Monts (Manche), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, second quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The château de Saint-Symphorien-des-Monts, in the commune of Buais-Les-Monts in the Manche département, no longer stands: the original building, altered several times from the 17th century onward, was destroyed and finally demolished in the 20th century. What remains and can be seen today is the surrounding estate, including its park and a 16th-century thatched cottage with arched openings, listed as a historic monument. Visitors come mainly for the atmosphere of a former country park rather than for any château facade.
