# Château du Valasse

Gruchet-le-Valasse, Seine-Maritime, Normandie

Château du Valasse stands in Gruchet-le-Valasse (Seine-Maritime), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century, 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

North of Rouen, the château du Valasse stands on the site of a Cistercian abbey founded around 1150 by Galéran IV of Meulan, a count returning from crusade. Damaged during the Hundred Years' War and again during the Wars of Religion, the abbey church was eventually destroyed after the Revolution, when a shipowner from Le Havre converted the monastic buildings into a residence. Visitors today find a long main range flanked by two low wings, a trace of a history that moved from religious life to industry before the town took ownership.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
