The Étournelles estate, in Breuil-le-Sec in the Oise, stands on a site occupied since antiquity, though its present form dates from the 19th century, with a park and a walled kitchen garden. Visitors come mainly for this productive garden, laid out around a pond in the mid-19th century by landscape designer Louis-Sulpice Varé, who later worked on the Bois de Boulogne. The surrounding farm, run by the same family for more than two centuries, rounds out a visit that is more rural than castle-like.
