Château d'Amou, Classical castle in Amou, France.
The castle features symmetrical architecture with stone facades, wrought iron gates, and a grand central courtyard surrounded by manicured gardens.
Built in the 17th century under the direction of architect François Mansart, who also contributed to the design of Palace of Versailles.
The castle represents French classical architecture through its balanced proportions, structured gardens, and traditional limestone construction methods.
Located between Dax and Pau, the castle hosts private events and ceremonies, with access through a tree-lined avenue from the village.
The square courtyard accommodates large gatherings while maintaining the original architectural elements designed by François Mansart.
