En un regard
Le château en bref
Cheman Castle is located in Blaison-Saint-Sulpice, in the Maine-et-Loire department, at the heart of a wine-growing terroir. Its name first appears in the archives in 1234. In the 14th century, it belonged to Jehan de Marettes, then passed to Pierre Lebrun in 1434 and to Jean de Vauferie in 1479. In 1551, Jamet Martin bought it from François de Goulaines, and the Cheverue family retained it until the Revolution. It was sold as national property in 1795. The main residence was remodelled in the 14th, 16th and 18th centuries. A dolmen stands on the estate, which has regained its vineyard since 2011 and now operates as a guest house.
