Domaine des Grotteaux stands in Huisseau-sur-Cosson (Loir-et-Cher), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first quarter of the 17th century, first half of the 19th century). Adult admission costs 12 EUR. Its opening hours and prices were verified at the source on September 5, 2026.
On the western edge of Huisseau-sur-Cosson, the Domaine des Grotteaux pairs an early 17th-century château with a park crossed by the Cosson river. Completed around 1620, the house retains painted ceilings and monumental fireplaces in the salon and dining room, along with 17th-century mural paintings of the Olympian gods uncovered in 2014. The grounds still hold an island on the river, an iron footbridge, a landing stage and a lock, dating from improvements made around the turn of the 19th century.
