Château de Tourdelain stands in Saint-Thual (Ille-et-Vilaine), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first half of the 17th century, second quarter of the 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Tourdelain castle, built in the early 17th century on the remains of a medieval fortress, represents a Breton aristocratic residence from the Classical period. Its architecture centers on a main building flanked by two wings in right angles, transformed by two phases of work in the 18th and 19th centuries. The interiors retain Louis XIV woodwork, while the adjacent small building, formerly the seigneurial court, completes the ensemble with its distinctive inverted keel roof.
