En un regard
Le château en bref
In the countryside around Saint-Malo, the Château du Bos is one of the largest malouinières, the country residences that shipowners and merchants of the corsair city had built away from the ramparts in the 17th and 18th centuries. It was erected between 1715 and 1717 by the Magon family, one of the great merchant dynasties of Saint-Malo, at a time when long-distance trade was the source of the port's wealth. The residence follows the features of the type: a restrained and elegant main house, outbuildings and gardens that together formed a domain both residential and agricultural. Bought in 2006 by Henry Robet and his wife, the château underwent a complete restoration, carried out in liaison with the heritage services, which concerned the main house as well as the outbuildings and the gardens. Today it remains a private residence, presented by its owners on their own website.
