This Historic Castle, with its parks and fountains is a haven for nature lovers. Transport yourself back to the 17th century as the guides of this castle take you through this huge estate in 17th century costumes. Annually, this castle gets 100,000 visitors and is one of the most frequented places in France. The historic rooms, the lush gardens and the wax figures invite you to explore this private estate. Belonging to the 10th marquis of Breteuil, this castle has France's largest dovecotes that were built in the 15th century. It is home to 3,000 pigeons. Don't be surprised if you see peacocks parading as you stroll down the gardens. Charles de Ferault has also been an inspiration for the parks in this castle. Add this place to your list of "things to see" in Paris. Admission: £9.90 adults, £8.90. Check website for details. Review © 2009, Wcities |
