Château de Sourdéac, Historical castle in La Gacilly, France

The castle stands on an elevation near the Aff river, constructed with crystalline schist base and tuff stone upper levels featuring an octagonal turret.

Built between 1548 and 1550 by Jean V de Rieux, the castle replaced an earlier manor owned by the La Motte family in the 14th century.

Novelist Paul Féval wrote several works at the castle during the 19th century, including 'Anne des îles' and 'La Dame blanche des marais'.

The castle functions as a vacation rental property with accommodations established in 1989, offering visitors a chance to stay in a genuine French heritage site.

The structure received historical monument status in 1925, specifically for its original staircase turret, which remains a defining architectural element.
