Château de Farcheville, Medieval castle in Bouville, France

The rectangular fortress includes corner towers with machicolations, protective moats, and a central courtyard leading to a 17th-century pavilion.

Built between 1290 and 1304 by Hugh II and Hugh III of Bouville, who served as chamberlains to King Philip IV of France.

The castle chapel contains original decorative elements from the early 14th century, representing French medieval religious architecture and art.

Located 45 minutes from Paris, the estate spans 1,000 acres and includes 25 bedrooms, an indoor pool, tennis courts, and a private cinema.

The castle features northern French architectural elements combined with military design elements typical of southern Languedoc structures.
