Château de Grisy

En un regard

Le château en bref

Grisy Castle, in Vendeuvre (Calvados), in the Dives valley, was built at the end of the 16th century and then altered in the 17th and early 18th centuries, in limestone and Caen stone. The right wing dates from the reign of Henri II, and the main façade from the Louis XIII period; the entrance was rebuilt in the early 18th century. A lord of Grisy is documented as early as the 12th century. During the Second World War, it served as a fuel depot for German troops. Owned by the same family since 1910, and restored since the 1980s, it is listed as a monument historique and open to visitors from early July to mid-August.
