Château de Caradeuc

En un regard

Le château en bref

Château de Caradeuc is an 18th-century château surrounded by a large landscaped park, located across the communes of Longaulnay, Becherel, Saint-Pern (Ille-et-Vilaine) and Plouasne (Côtes-d'Armor) in the Brittany region. The château was built in the classical style from 1722 for the Caradeuc de La Chalotais family, Breton parliamentarians. It then passed into the hands of Count Alfred de Falloux, and later to the de Kernier family, who commissioned Edouard André to create the park. The park consists of French formal parterres around the château, themselves surrounded by a vast wooded landscape park, crossed by shaded avenues and populated with monuments and statues inspired by history and mythology. The whole estate covers 37 hectares; it is considered the largest park in Brittany. The château and the park are listed as a historic monument (inscrit monument historique). The park is a classified site (site classé) and has received the Jardin remarquable (Remarkable Garden) label.
