Château de Chevilly

En un regard

Le château en bref

Château de Chevilly is a château located in Chevilly, in the Loiret department of the Centre-Val de Loire region. From a country fief, the Chevilly estate grew in importance at the end of the 17th century and throughout the 18th century. It was in 1732 that Nicolas Hatte, receveur général des finances under King Louis XV, had a château built on the estate that had been bequeathed to him by his uncle. The Château de Chevilly changed appearance on several occasions under the actions of its successive owners, such as the marquis Claude François Perrin de Cypierre. In 1766, three years after being elevated to the rank of barony, the Chevilly estate gave its name to the neighbouring commune. Currently owned by the Bazin de Caix family, the château is listed in the Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments, and the panelling of its chapel is classified as a historic monument.
