Château de Montgobert, Historical monument and museum in Montgobert, France.

The neoclassical Château de Montgobert displays symmetrical architecture with formal gardens, grand staircases, and detailed stone carvings throughout its structure.

Pierre-François-Léonard Fontaine designed the château in 1775, incorporating architectural elements that later influenced numerous imperial palaces across France.

The château served as a temporary residence for General Charles Leclerc and received substantial renovations between 1798 and 1799 during the French Revolution period.

The château maintains regular visiting hours for its museum collections, with guided tours available to explore the architectural features and historical rooms.

Fontaine incorporated innovative design elements learned during his Roman studies, making this château an early example of his developing neoclassical style.
