Château de Vaubadon stands in Balleroy-sur-Drôme (Calvados), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 18th century, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The château de Vaubadon stands in Balleroy-sur-Drôme, in the Calvados department, built between 1739 and 1779 for the Letellier family. Its classical layout, fronted by a moat and an entrance courtyard, keeps an interior arrangement of rooms in a row that still recalls earlier building habits. The estate retains a 19th-century landscape park, a kitchen garden, the gardener's house and outbuildings grouped around a courtyard, along with an ornamental pond opening onto the surrounding countryside.
