Château de Jean d'Heurs

En un regard

Le château en bref

Château de Jean d'Heurs is a château located in L'Isle-en-Rigault, in the Meuse department. Founded around 1140, a former Premonstratensian abbey was converted into a château in 1808 by Marshal Oudinot. This residence, in the Louis XV style and built of white Savonnières stone, is surrounded by a landscape park watered by the Saulx, which is representative of the Lorraine garden art of the 19th century. Various buildings, both functional and decorative, stand there, such as the former stables, converted into a riding centre, the orangery and other garden follies, characteristic of the First Empire.
