Château du Rocher, Medieval castle in Mézangers, France
The Château du Rocher stands on a granite outcrop beside a pond, featuring a Renaissance gallery with five arcades and French-style gardens.
The castle, first mentioned in 1282 as Rochier, served as a refuge for Notre-Dame d'Évron Abbey during Protestant attacks in 1562.
The castle chapel from 1446 holds regular religious services and contains a period statue of Saint Catherine dating from the 16th century.
Free exterior visits to the castle grounds and park are available daily except Fridays from June 15 to October 15.
The castle includes a 44-hectare park with French gardens, classified as a protected site since March 16, 1943.
