Château de Pontécoulant, Historical castle in Pontécoulant, France
The castle features a central building with five bays, two circular towers, and an eastern wing connected to a square western extension.
Originally built as a feudal stronghold in the 14th century, the castle was destroyed by Protestants in 1562 and subsequently reconstructed with enhanced fortifications.
The castle houses collections of regional artifacts and period furniture, serving as a museum certified by the French Ministry of Culture since its donation in 1908.
Visitors can explore the English-style gardens, historic apartments, and preserved architectural elements dating from the 16th through 18th centuries.
Field Marshal Erwin Rommel spent one night in the castle's blue room during the German occupation of France in World War II.
