The Château du Parc-Soubise, in Mouchamps, Vendée, sits on an estate with roots in the old nobility of Bas-Poitou. The surviving 17th century buildings, especially the barn and granary, recall the Rohan family and the religious wars that shook the region. Dismantled on Richelieu's orders after the Huguenot uprising, the complex was rebuilt in the 19th century on older foundations. Visitors today find a park, listed outbuildings and a chapel whose interior decoration carries special protection.
