Château de Bourlémont, Medieval castle in Frebécourt, France

The castle rises 400 meters above sea level on a promontory, providing views across the Meuse Valley and surrounding forests of Western Vosges.

Built in 1242 by Joffroy de Bourlemont, seneschal of Navarre, the castle served as a strategic point for protecting the village of Domremy.

The Saint Vincent Chapel contains medieval religious art, including a 16th-century sepulcher and funeral monuments of the Anglure and Alsace families.

The park and gardens of the castle welcome visitors during July and August, featuring French-style landscaping designed by Paul de Lavenne de Choulot.

Throughout its 900-year history, only three families have owned this castle: the Bourlemont, the Anglure, and the Alsace families.
