Château de Marcilly-sur-Maulne, 17th century castle in Maulne Valley, France.

The castle follows a geometric layout with a central pavilion housing a chapel and staircase, surrounded by balanced proportioned pavilions.

Charles Fouquet, treasurer of France, purchased the estate in 1608 and rebuilt the castle following Jacques Androuet du Cerceau's plans.

The chapel at the top of the central pavilion preserves 17th century trompe-l'oeil frescoes and a starry vault ceiling.

Guided tours of the castle run from July 15 to September 4, 2024, every day except Sundays, lasting 45 minutes.

The estate stables feature pink marble mangers dating from the Napoleon III period.
