Château de Monceau, Heritage castle in Prissé, France
The castle exhibits a rectangular U-shaped configuration with a main residential building and two perpendicular wings at each corner of the structure.
In 1648, Philippe Moisson, who owned the divided land of Prissé's castellany, constructed a pavilion and established a chapel on the property.
The poet Alphonse de Lamartine acquired the estate in 1834 through inheritance from his aunt Anne-Charlotte and wrote several works in the vineyard pavilion.
The castle currently belongs to the Frédéric Ozanam association, which operates it as a vacation residence for elderly individuals.
The structure features Doric corner pilasters of colossal order decorating the angles of the main building, representing its earliest architectural elements.
