To make a day of it

Château du Meux stands in Le Meux (Oise), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second quarter of the 17th century, 18th century, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Le Meux, in the Oise department, a château dating from the second quarter of the 17th century stands between a park and a garden, built for the Rouville family and completed in 1637. Its construction combines white stone, pink brick and blue slate, in a design whose authorship is still debated between François Mansart and Sébastien Bruand. Inside, a vaulted staircase with opposing straight flights is the most notable feature of the layout. The seven-hectare park retains traces of a formal French design alongside an English-style garden containing a tulip tree more than two centuries old.
