Château de Préaux-Saint-Sébastien

En un regard

Le château en bref

The Château de Préaux-Saint-Sébastien, on the site of a former fortified castle (now in Livarot-Pays-d'Auge), comprises a rectangular 18th-century main block of classical proportions, with cylindrical 17th-century towers topped by pepperpot roofs, and some parts may date back to the 16th century. Gaston Baudouin was the original commissioner; the fief then passed to the Saint-Aubin, Baudouin, and Moges families (1595), followed by the Lebas, d'Hommey, and Triboul families. A cylindrical dovecote of brick and limestone stands nearby. It is protected as a historic monument.
