Château de Monthelon, Medieval castle in Monthelon, France.
The rectangular castle features two round towers extending from the northeast facade and a courtyard accessible through twin entrance doors.
Built in the 15th century, the castle was purchased by Guy de Rabutin-Chantal in 1580 and later became home to Jeanne-Françoise Frémyot.
The castle displays Renaissance decorations, including a stone relief depicting the Rabutin-Chantal coat of arms held by angels above the entrance.
The property functions as an international artistic workshop space, hosting approximately 200 artists annually for creative residencies and exhibitions.
During the French Revolution, the castle transformed into a farm under the Denèvre family before its restoration as an artistic creation center.
