Château de Balleroy, Classical castle in Balleroy-sur-Drôme, France.
The Château de Balleroy stands as a symmetrical stone structure with a central pavilion flanked by two wings and topped with steep slate roofs.
François Mansart designed and built this castle between 1625 and 1635, establishing new standards for French classical architecture in the 17th century.
The castle maintains a collection of period furnishings and decorative arts that represent the refined taste of French nobility through different centuries.
The castle opens from April 1st to November 6th, offering guided tours of the interior rooms and access to the formal gardens daily.
The castle grounds feature gardens designed by André Le Nôtre, the same landscape architect who created the gardens of Versailles.
