Château de Fresnay, Medieval castle in Le Bourgneuf-la-Forêt, France.
The castle features a central building with two side pavilions and displays decorative armorial pediments on the main facades of the structure.
Robert de Loré owned the estate in 1387 and participated in the meeting at Pouilly in 1419 before accompanying the dauphin at Montereau.
The castle includes protected architectural elements such as a chapel, walled garden, fish pond, and tree-lined avenues that reflect French estate design.
Visitors can arrange exterior tours by calling 02 43 08 90 07, and the castle opens its grounds during national heritage days in France.
The French government officially recognized Château de Fresnay as the birthplace of the Chouannerie movement through a directorial decree in July 1795.
