Château du Taillis stands in Duclair (Seine-Maritime), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 16th century, 17th century, 18th century, first quarter of the 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Duclair, Seine-Maritime, the château du Taillis brings together several building phases carried out over nearly two centuries by the du Fay family, from the central block dating to the late 16th century to the wings added in the early 19th century. The estate still holds a vaulted cellar, a remnant of an earlier fortified manor that once guarded the road between Rouen and Le Havre. Around the main house lies a park combining French-style layout with later English-style landscaping, along with an orangery and farm outbuildings.

What to know

  • The château has been listed as a historic monument since 1996, covering the main house, the orangery, the ice house, the barns and remaining parts of the enclosure wall.
  • A visit focuses mainly on the park and the grounds around the château rather than a full interior tour.
  • The site lies about twenty minutes from Rouen, making it an easy stop from the city.
  • No opening hours or admission fees could be independently verified for this listing.
