Château de Quéhillac, Medieval castle in Bouvron, France.

The Château de Quéhillac features multiple architectural elements including a central manor, chapel, chaplain residence, stables, and protective moats around the perimeter.

Jean Fourché acquired the estate in 1595, and in 1640 Nicolas Fouquet, superintendent of finances under Louis XIV, obtained the property through marriage to Louise Fourché.

The chapel of Saint-Matthieu contains preserved murals that reflect the artistic preferences and religious expressions of French nobility during the Renaissance period.

The château received official monument historique status on November 22, 2002, with protected elements including facades, roofs, chapel structures, and garden walls.

The property has remained within the same family lineage since the 16th century, now maintained by the counts le Gentil de Rosmorduc from Brittany.
