Château de Flamanville, 17th-century castle in Flamanville, France
Built from local gray granite, the castle features a symmetrical design with two grand pavilions flanking the main residence and steep roofs.
The construction of the castle began in 1654 under Hervé Basan, replacing an earlier manor house while preserving a circular tower at the back.
A pavilion constructed in 1778 was intended for philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, though he never resided in the designated quarters.
The twenty-four hectare park remains open daily at no cost, offering visitors access to wooded areas, two ponds, and a garden containing thousand dahlia varieties.
The castle changed ownership multiple times until 1986, when the municipality of Flamanville acquired the property through a second vote after an initial invalid attempt.
