En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château du Patys (spelled ‘Paty’ in the record) is located in Marans, in the commune of Segré-en-Anjou Bleu (Maine-et-Loire). Built in the 16th century, it was converted into a country residence in the 19th century under the direction of the architect Auguste Bibard, in a neo-medieval style: a main building flanked by two pavilions and two turrets, a salon ceiling and chapel decorations by the painter Camille Robert. The Bazin family lived there in the 20th century; the mother of Hervé Bazin resided there until 1960. Bought and renovated in 2018, it became the Hervé Bazin house museum in 2020 and received the ‘Maison des Illustres’ label in 2022.
