Château de Bogar

En un regard

Le château en bref

The Château de Bogar (or Bogard), in Quessoy (Côtes-d'Armor), combines a pavilion surviving from the late 16th century, outbuildings dating from 1656 and a wing of the main residence built just before the Revolution. It is surrounded by a garden with a Romantic layout created in the early 19th century and by 40 hectares of woodland, meadows, gardens and orchard. Passed by inheritance from the Bogar family to the Le Métayer family and then to the de la Noue family — a family of councillors at the Parlement of Brittany, forced into exile in England during the Terror — and then by marriage to the du Plessis de Grenédan family, four of whose members served as mayors of Quessoy, the estate has belonged to the Capelle family since the 1960s. Listed (inscrit) as a Monument historique since 1990, it is now run as a reception venue (weddings, secular ceremonies, seminars, stays) and can be visited by appointment as well as during the European Heritage Days.
