Château de Versainville stands in Versainville (Calvados), in the Normandie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, first half of the 18th century, first quarter of the 20th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The Château de Versainville stands in the Calvados countryside near Falaise, set within a park of centuries-old trees. Built in the 18th century for François-Joseph de Marguerit, it kept an uneven layout until a matching wing was added in 1912 to balance the composition. Visitors can see a long facade with regular bays, a courtyard opening onto flower beds, and inside a grand entrance hall along with a few surviving decorative features, including a painted ceiling and Cordoba leather in the staircase.

What to know

The château stayed in the same family from its construction until 1947, then served as a holiday camp before being bought back in 2002 by a descendant of the original owners.
Most of the original interior decoration is gone, apart from an entrance hall, a painted ceiling and Cordoba leather in the staircase.
The park, with its avenue and pond, is listed in the preliminary inventory of notable gardens.
The facades, roofs and part of the park hold heritage protection status, though at varying levels depending on the feature.
No opening hours, prices or visiting arrangements appear in the verified data, so it is worth checking directly with the château before visiting.
