Château de l'Esparrou, Historical castle in Canet-en-Roussillon, France
The four-level castle spans 400 square meters and features an underground level, ground floor, first floor, and second floor with various rooms.
Joseph Sauvy, president of the Perpignan commercial court, commissioned architect Viggo Dorph-Petersen to build this castle between 1889 and 1891.
The castle houses a music room, winter garden, and library, while its estate produces wines under protected designations like AOP Côtes du Roussillon.
The castle stands above the northeastern corner of Canet-Saint-Nazaire lagoon and can be reached via departmental road D 81A.
The property name appears in 17th-century documents as Lo Sparro and El Esparro, with Germanic linguistic origins.
