To make a day of it

Château du Plessis stands in Argentré-du-Plessis (Ille-et-Vilaine), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The Château du Plessis stands in Argentré-du-Plessis, its medieval foundations having been thoroughly reworked in the 19th century. The present façades, with their round turrets and neo-Gothic chapel, are the result of a rebuilding campaign blending Gothic references with a Renaissance-inspired design. Inside, visitors can see 18th-century wood panelling and a ballroom with a painted coffered ceiling. The grounds also include a park organised around a network of water features, a pond and several small islands.
