Château de Caradeuc

Château de Caradeuc is an 18th-century castle with a 37-hectare park featuring formal gardens with granite balustrades, sculpted lawns, and tree-lined avenues. The grounds divide into different sections filled with statues and decorative garden elements.

The castle was built in 1723 for Anne-Nicolas de Caradeuc as a private residence in the region. The gardens underwent major redesign by landscape architect Édouard André in 1898, transforming their original layout.

The garden displays Roman busts and mythological statues placed among hedges and flowerbeds that reveal classical influences. These sculptures invite visitors to discover how ancient art became part of the landscape design.

The estate opens to visitors mainly during summer months and for special events such as European Heritage Days. Check ahead for visiting times, as special activities and guided tours are regularly scheduled.

The Diane Parterre is shaped like a lyre and edged with American red oaks, creating an optical effect. This carefully designed sightline makes the garden appear deeper than it actually is.
