Château de Frazé

Château de Frazé is a castle property in the village with buildings from different centuries. The Saint-François tower displays a gray stone foundation with lighter stone bands running horizontally, and a decorative corded trim encircles the middle section.

The original castle was destroyed during the Hundred Years' War and rebuilt in the late 1400s. Renaissance buildings were added in the 1500s, transforming the property into the structure visitors see today.

The grounds feature French gardens and architectural styles that changed over centuries, showing how construction methods evolved from the 15th through 18th centuries. Walking through the property reveals these different layers of building and design.

The gardens require advance booking before visiting. The entrance gates connect directly to the village square, making it easy to reach from the church and main village areas.

The property once operated its own tile factory that produced materials for the castle construction and many village buildings. This facility allowed for rapid building and helped shape the village's appearance over time.
