Château de Fougeret, Historical castle in Queaux, France
The Château de Fougeret stands on a 38-meter cliff overlooking the Vienne Valley, surrounded by a 10-hectare park with American walnuts and giant sequoias.
Built between the 15th and 16th centuries, the castle features three round towers, a chapel, medieval brattices, an icehouse, and mullioned windows from its original construction.
The interior contains wall paintings, frescoes, decorated ceilings, a mosaic, woodwork, and a Gothic fireplace with a stone spiral staircase resembling Château de Chambord.
The castle offers paranormal night visits for guests interested in exploring the premises, though visitors should note the current state of renovation work.
Since 2009, the owners reported numerous unexplained phenomena within the castle, leading to its designation as a significant paranormal investigation site in France.

Halloween becomes an annual major event across France. Theme parks like Disneyland Paris, Parc Astérix, and Futuroscope create special environments with seasonal decorations, themed shows, and attractions suitable for all ages. Families can enjoy special menus in restaurants and meet costumed characters that animate the walkways. Cultural heritage sites also participate by organizing night visits. The Paris Catacombs reveal their underground history through guided tours after dark. The Château de Combourg welcomes visitors to its medieval halls with historical stories, while the Citadel of Bitche transforms its military galleries into theatrical settings. Museums also join the festivities: the Rodin Museum highlights its Gates of Hell with sound and visual effects. Natural sites like the Balme Caves host thematic exhibitions, and even the Thoiry Zoo invites visitors to observe animals during specially arranged evening events.
