Château de Montflaux, Historic castle in Saint-Denis-de-Gastines, France.

Montflaux Castle features granite elements, moats, a drawbridge, and multiple pavilions surrounding the main building in a structured architectural layout.

The castle underwent major reconstruction in the mid-17th century under Charles de Froulay, replacing the previous manor on this strategic location.

The estate includes a chapel, orangery, pond, and mill connected by avenues that form a representative architectural ensemble.

This listed historical monument since 1929 stands three kilometers west-northwest of Saint-Denis-de-Gastines on the road to Carelles.

During the French Revolution, the castle provided shelter to royalist Chouans and experienced an invasion by locals demanding stored grain.
