Château du Val, Royal hunting lodge in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France.

The Château du Val stands at the northern end of the Grande Terrasse, featuring classical architecture with symmetrical proportions and refined stone decorations.

Jules Hardouin-Mansart constructed this residence in 1674 for Louis XIV, transforming a simple hunting lodge into an elegant château with royal apartments.

The property includes a collection of 10,000 books in its library and maintains spaces dedicated to cinema screenings and artistic workshops throughout the year.

The castle operates as a four-star hotel named La Maison du Val, offering 49 rooms and multiple spaces for events within its 4-hectare wooded park.

The establishment features a preserved 19th-century laiterie and transformed stables that now serve as entertainment areas for children and families.
