Château du Bot, Historical castle in Hennebont, France.
The castle features a central body with two perpendicular wings forming an H-shaped plan, covered with plaster and decorated with stone dressings around openings.
Between 1877 and 1883, Ernest de Blignières initiated renovations of the existing structure, appointing architects Léopold Maigné and Ambroise Baudry for the transformation.
The interior rooms display orientalist designs influenced by Egyptian architectural elements, reflecting the owner's collection of Arabic art gathered during his time in Cairo.
The castle remains a private residence owned by the de Blignières family, with specific areas designated for occasional public events and guided visits.
The ground floor rooms designed by Ambroise Baudry incorporate materials and decorative elements from demolished ancient structures in Egypt, creating distinct oriental patterns.
