Château du Loumaing, Castle in Lahosse, France
Château du Loumaing is a castle in Lahosse, France. The building has a red brick and pale stone facade with a steep slate roof, a central pavilion, and a stone band marked 1854.
The estate was first mentioned in 1329. The current building was constructed in 1874 by Félix Boisot, replacing older structures.
The name Loumaing comes from the old estate that once stood here. Today, the building is a private home, and its facade shows the year 1854, a detail that catches the eye of passersby.
The castle is on private land, so you can only see it from the road. There are no guided tours or visitor facilities, so plan to admire it from a distance.
A hydraulic ram once pumped water up to the castle, and its small shelter still stands in a nearby meadow. The family tomb is at the entrance of the cemetery.
