Château de Corbeville, Renaissance castle in Orsay, France.
The Château de Corbeville stands on Troche hill with four distinct turrets and a prominent roof visible above the trees from the valley below.
Built in 1520 as a residence for Isaac Arnauld, counselor to King Henry IV, the château received authorization in 1605 to add its four characteristic towers.
The castle served as a sanctuary for forty Jewish children whose parents were deported during World War II, following the Liberation of France.
The property extends from the Saclay plateau down to wooded slopes near Route Nationale 118, marking a significant position in the local landscape.
Thomson-CSF transformed the castle into a telecommunications research center, operating from 1955 until 2005, contributing to technological advancement.
