Château de Croix, 18th century castle in Génelard, France.
The rectangular castle, built with yellow stone and slate roofing, features two wings extending from the central structure overlooking the Bourbince river.
Paul-Étienne Mayneaud de la Tour demolished the original fortress in 1730 and constructed the new castle, which was completed in 1744.
The château interior underwent substantial renovations in 1874, adding stables, a dovecote, and a mill to support the lifestyle of French nobility.
The castle stands on private property and remains closed to public visits, maintaining its status as a residential estate.
The surrounding English-style park, planted in 1841, contains a circular tower pavilion and L-shaped outbuildings with a polygonal dovecote.
