Château de Villeneuve-l'Étang stands in Marnes-la-Coquette (Hauts-de-Seine), in the Île-de-France region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The château de Villeneuve-l'Étang, in Marnes-la-Coquette in the Hauts-de-Seine, no longer stands: it was pulled down in the 1880s. The site nonetheless carries real historical weight, since Napoleon III and Empress Eugénie stayed there, including during their honeymoon in 1853. Part of the estate was later given over to Louis Pasteur for his research, and the buildings erected during the Second Empire for that purpose still stand today.
