Château d’Aunoy, Historical castle in Champeaux, France.

The castle features thick stone walls exceeding 2 meters, Catalan vaults, and a surrounding English-style park with extended lawns and water features.

After a fire destroyed the medieval structure in 1750, Jean-Baptiste Chabert rebuilt the castle using specific architectural techniques to prevent future fire damage.

The castle grounds include several architectural elements such as a courtyard of honor, moats, and additional buildings that represent French architectural traditions.

Visitors can explore the castle grounds throughout the year, with guided tours providing detailed information about the architectural features and historical significance.

The castle served as a monitored residence for important figures during the Algerian War, including Ahmed Ben Bella from December 1961 to March 1962.
