Château Magne, Second Empire château in Trélissac, France

The rectangular main building of Château Magne features two pavilions, each adorned with polygonal towers at the north and west ends of the structure.

Alfred Magne, son of Napoleon III's Finance Minister, commissioned the construction of this château between 1864 and 1869 according to architect Bertelin's plans.

The château grounds contain the ruins of a 15th-century Notre-Dame de l'Assomption church and the original Trélissac castle within its four-hectare park.

The château, located 4 kilometers from Périgueux, now houses 24 residential apartments following its transformation from a former hospice facility.

Napoleon Magne donated the château to Périgueux city with the specific requirement that it serve as a retirement home, a function it maintained until the 2000s.
