Château du Bois de la Roche, Medieval castle in Néant-sur-Yvel, France.

The castle features a V-shaped layout with an original wing and additional sections modified between the 17th and 19th centuries.

During the French Revolution in 1793, the castle endured damage from battles between Chouans and Republicans, leading to partial dismantling.

The castle demonstrates the architectural evolution of noble residences in Brittany, with its towers, walls, and modified structures across centuries.

The castle, listed as a historical monument since 2001, includes protected facades, roofing, outbuildings, entrance pavilions, and surrounding grounds.

The Lords of Bois de la Roche held extensive rights, exercising jurisdiction over multiple parishes and maintaining high justice privileges.
