To make a day of it

Château Mennechet stands in Chiry-Ourscamp (Oise), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

What the French Ministry of Culture records

Le château est l'oeuvre d'un riche érudit, Alphonse Mennechet de Barival. Il est le seul élément subsistant d'un vaste ensemble original composé également de deux manoirs et d'une tour. Le château était destiné à abriter sa collection d'oeuvres d'art, en partie léguée à la ville de Saint-Quentin à sa mort, dont des pastels de Maurice Quentin de La Tour. Laissé à l'abandon depuis la dernière guerre, l'édifice est aujourd'hui une ruine envahie par la végétation. Il demeure cependant un exemple rare d'initiative muséale privée dans cette région.
