To make a day of it

Château de Vaux stands in Jarzé Villages (Maine-et-Loire), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 14th century, 16th century, first quarter of the 19th century, first quarter of the 20th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Jarzé Villages, in the Anjou countryside, the château de Vaux combines the remains of a 14th century stronghold, moats, towers and a chapel, with a neoclassical main building rebuilt in the early 19th century. Surrounded by water filled moats and an enclosing wall, the estate has belonged to the same family since 1750. Visitors mainly come for the architecture and the wooded grounds around it, the chapel dedicated to Saint George being among the oldest surviving parts.

What to know

  • The château has been listed as a historic monument since 1993, a protection covering in particular the gatehouse, the chapel and the outbuildings.
  • Part of the building is used as a holiday rental, which affects visiting possibilities.
  • Access for visitors with reduced mobility is not possible due to interior staircases.
  • The site stands in open countryside near Seiches-sur-le-Loir, close to the A11 and A85 motorway exits.
