Château de Cocherel

En un regard

Le château en bref

The Château de Cocherel, at Houlbec-Cocherel (Eure), was a seventeenth-century building of brick and stone, with a rectangular main body flanked by a square tower to the north-west. In the nineteenth century, a terrace-type wing with arcaded openings overlooking the garden was added. The estate included an English-style landscape park along the river and a meadow with a kitchen garden. The main residence, which remained in the Crucius de la Croix family for 125 years, was destroyed by the bombings of 1944, though a few outbuildings survive.
