Le château en bref
Goury Castle takes its name from Pierre de Goury, councillor of state and steward of the king's household, who acquired it around 1650. Built as a large rectangle flanked by four corner pavilions and surrounded by partly infilled dry moats, it is distinguished by a very massive 17th-century gatehouse pavilion, with rustication and pilasters, listed as a monument historique in 1964. Located in the commune of Loigny-la-Bataille, the estate was the scene of fighting during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. Immaculately maintained, it is today home to two farming families and offers a furnished rental in one wing; its exteriors may be visited freely every day from 1 July to 31 August.
