Château de La Boissière, Louis XIII style château in La Boissière-École, France
Château de La Boissière is a Louis XIII style château in La Boissière-École, France, featuring red brick and stone alternating patterns on its facade. Steep roofs and ornamental stonework define its overall architectural presence.
The château was built between 1853 and 1857 on the site of a former medieval feudal domain. From 1886 onward, it became an educational institution under new ownership.
The name derives from the French word for birch grove, reflecting the landscape that once surrounded it. Today, the rooms with their high ceilings and decorative details show how residents lived and moved through the building.
The grounds feature century-old trees and a lily pond connected by marked pathways, making it easy to walk around the property. The setting works best during warmer months when the vegetation and water features are most appealing.
Inside, a white and yellow marble staircase stands out as a crafted detail worth noticing. The library holds a collection of issues from a respected French publication that many visitors overlook.
