Built for Nicolas Fouquet in the mid-17th century, this château brought together architect Louis Le Vau, decorator Charles Le Brun and landscape designer André Le Nôtre on a single project. The main building and the formal French gardens, restored at the end of the 19th century by the Sommier family, are open to visitors today within a domain that has kept the layout intended by its original creators. Visitors can see both the interiors painted by Le Brun and the water and greenery vistas laid out by Le Nôtre.
