Château d'Ardenay, 19th century mansion in Palaiseau, France.
The castle rises over three levels with a square tower at the northeast corner and a pepper-pot turret at the southeast corner.
Jean Boussac, a miller from Chateauroux, constructed this stone castle in 1889 when Palaiseau served as a vacation destination.
The structure features millstone walls, decorative bas-reliefs, and mosaics adorning the upper sections of the facade walls.
Located on the edge of the Saclay plateau, the castle now functions as a library within the Parc d'Ardenay residential complex.
Architect Louis Lacau designed this mansion with three bays topped by windows at each level and a veranda leading to a south-facing terrace.
