Château de Beuzeval, Château in Houlgate and Gonneville-sur-Mer, Calvados, France

Chateau de Beuzeval is a 19th-century manor house in Normandy, built around 1865 near the Drochon River in Houlgate. The stone and brick building with large windows sits on spacious grounds and displays solid craftsmanship from that era.

Beuzeval was an old parish documented by Arcisse de Caumont in 1862, with a 17th-century seigneurial manor and a chapel already on the site. The Caen architect Martial Pelfresne designed the present castle in the eclectic style typical of 1865 for Jules Lecesne, a Le Havre shipowner elected deputy in 1869. Its facades and roof were inscribed as monuments historiques on 21 June 2004.

The château's name comes from the old parish of Beuzeval, described by Arcisse de Caumont in 1862. The eclectic style of around 1865, chosen by architect Martial Pelfresne for shipowner Jules Lecesne, shows in the red brick and light stone trim, the patterned roof and the corner turrets.

The castle stands on the boundary of Houlgate and Gonneville-sur-Mer in Calvados, and its brick and stone facades and roof have been listed as monuments historiques since 21 June 2004. It is a private property visible from the surrounding lanes; approach on foot from the neighbouring streets rather than expecting a main-road entrance.

The château stands on the boundary of two communes, Houlgate and Gonneville-sur-Mer, so its grounds straddle both. The site also preserves traces of an older seigneurial manor and chapel that existed here before the 1865 building, mentioned by Arcisse de Caumont in 1862.
