Château d'Hérouville, Recording studio in Hérouville-en-Vexin, France

The stone manor features two expansive wings containing thirty rooms, complemented by a swimming pool and tennis court within 1.7 hectares of parkland.

The castle, constructed in 1740 by architect Gaudot, emerged from the foundations of a 16th-century structure and functioned as a courier station between Versailles and Beauvais.

Michel Magne transformed the property into a recording facility in 1969, attracting musicians such as Elton John, David Bowie, and Pink Floyd throughout the 1970s.

The renovated recording studio reopened in September 2020 following extensive repairs by a group of audio engineers who purchased the property in 2015.

The Bee Gees composed and recorded their hits 'Stayin' Alive' and 'How Deep Is Your Love' at this location for the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack.
