Château de la Seilleraye, 17th-century historical monument in Carquefou, France
The château exhibits architectural elements from François Mansart's design, featuring symmetrical wings, classical proportions, and a central pavilion with stone construction.
Guillaume d'Harouys commissioned the construction of Château de la Seilleraye in 1671, serving as treasurer of Brittany until its completion in 1730.
Letters written by Madame de Sévigné in 1675 document the construction process and social gatherings among French nobility at the château.
The château contains 25 private residential apartments following recent renovations, with additional housing developments planned for the surrounding grounds.
The interior preserves 18th-century wall panels that cover original 17th-century painted decorations, including stained glass from an 1833 chapel.
