Château de Bandeville, Louis XIII style castle in Saint-Cyr-sous-Dourdan, France.
Château de Bandeville is a Louis XIII style castle with a central building flanked by side pavilions built from rubble stones and red bricks. The structures surround a park and display classical French residential architecture.
The castle was built in 1622 for Thierry Sevin and later received the status of a marquisate. Under François Bazin in 1682, the structure was modified and expanded.
The castle shows a blend of medieval and classical French design principles visible in its stone facades and brick details. Visitors can see how 17th-century architecture moved away from older fortress concepts.
The main facades, roofs, vestibule, and staircase are protected by historical monument status. These preserved details show the craftsmanship standards of the early 1600s.
A Gothic style entrance lodge complements the main structure and offers visual contrast. The surrounding park holds statues from a former French garden, showing how the landscape design evolved over time.
