Chateau de Guernon-Ranville, 18th-century noble residence in Ranville, France.
The stone château features two principal wings connected by a gallery, with the left wing containing living spaces and the right wing housing service areas.
Count Martial de Guernon-Ranville, Minister of Public Instruction under Charles X, inherited the property in 1818 and conducted extensive renovations to unite the wings.
The château stands as a representation of Norman nobility, with the Guernon family tracing their lineage to Rollon, the first Duke of Normandy.
The property sits between Rue du Belvédère and Rue du Colonel Fabien, operating now as a guesthouse for visitors to the Normandy region.
During the D-Day operations in 1944, the château transformed into a field hospital, displaying a Red Cross emblem on its roof despite enemy fire.
