Château du Valasse, Gothic abbey turned into château in Seine-Maritime, France

The Valasse estate consists of a main building with wooden attics, surrounded by extensive lawns and centuries-old trees in a 14-hectare park.

Founded in 1157 as Notre-Dame du Voeu Abbey, the structure sustained damage during the Hundred Years' War before transforming into a château in 1791.

The former monastery now hosts art exhibitions throughout the year, showcasing both contemporary sculptures in the park and local artists in the dairy building.

The château grounds remain open to visitors daily from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with free entrance and parking facilities near the main entrance.

The dairy building of the estate houses a tea room and a shop, providing visitors with refreshments and local products throughout the day.
