The château des Coudreaux stands in Marboué, in the Eure-et-Loir department, on the site of a former manor house of which only four round corner towers remain. Built in the 18th century, the main building is notable for its Mansard-style attic floor and its two projecting pavilions at front and back. Around the house are extensive outbuildings, a farm and a kitchen garden from the same period, along with a park laid out to designs by Bertaus. The place recalls the poet Clément Marot, once a guest of René Lemaire in the 16th century, and Marshal Ney, who lived there in the early 19th century.
