Château du Mousseau, Historic castle in Orbigny, France.
The Château du Mousseau features cut stone and brick construction, built between 1876 and 1880 in the neo-Louis XIII architectural style.
In September 1944, the Lecoz resistance group, led by Georges Dubosq, established their base at the castle for resistance operations.
A chapel occupies the upper level of the central structure, reflecting the French architectural traditions of the 19th century.
The castle stands 800 meters west of Orbigny center, accessible via the D89 departmental road in Indre-et-Loire.
Historical documents refer to the estate under various names, including Monceau on the Cassini map and Mousseaux in certain ancient texts.
