Château de Loyat, Historical monument in Loyat, France

The Château de Loyat stands between Josselin and Brocéliande, featuring stone walls, symmetrical design, and gardens that extend across the property.

Built from 1718 to 1734 by architect Olivier Delourme for René-Charles de Coëtlogon, the castle replaced a ruined manor inherited by the Viscount of Loyat.

The castle received financial support from Marquis Alain-Emmanuel de Coëtlogon, an advisor to King Louis XIV, who involved members of the Royal Academy of Architecture.

Guided tours of the castle and its grounds require advance reservations, allowing visitors to explore the preserved 18th-century architecture and formal gardens.

The construction faced numerous challenges due to the remote location and poor road conditions, affecting the transportation of local building materials.
