En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château de Nozieux, in Saint-Claude-de-Diray (Loir-et-Cher), was built in 1610 by Jean Charron, commissary of war. Sold to his nephew Jacques in 1652, it passed to Jean-Jacques Charron, known as the président de Menars, who merged the estates of Nozieux and Menars in 1669. Furnished until 1771, sequestrated in 1793, it became a grape-sugar factory (1806), then a tree nursery (1901), then a military retirement home (1903), before being demolished between 1910 and 1913 due to its poor condition. Today, only the four-pavilion service courtyard, the dovecote and a few outbuildings remain, including a tower converted into a gîte since 2015.
