Château de Gœulzin, Medieval castle in Gœulzin, France
The castle features a L-shaped layout with two rectangular residential wings, round towers topped with pepper-pot roofs, and wide moats filled with water.
First mentioned in documents from 1310, the castle was rebuilt after fires in the 16th century by Charles Albert de Longeval, Count of Bucquoy.
The castle reflects the architectural evolution from a medieval fortress to a pleasure residence during the 17th century in northern France.
Located 4 kilometers south of Douai, the castle grounds cover 3.5 hectares and include remnants of ancient hunting woods and a portion of Gœulzin pond.
The property includes a remarkable ice house tower built in 1763, combining both an ice storage system and a dovecote over multiple levels.
