Castle of Combreux, Medieval castle in Combreux, France

The castle features a neogothic architectural design with surrounding moats and stands prominently along the Orleans canal in the Loire Valley region.

The castle's documented history begins in the 12th century, and the current structure was rebuilt between 1887 and 1905 on the foundations of a 16th-century edifice.

Alexandre-Jules de La Rochefoucauld, duc d'Estissac, maintained a pack of 80 dogs at the castle for organizing traditional French hunting expeditions.

The private castle stands at 70 Route du Gâtinais in Combreux and remains closed to public visits, though the exterior can be viewed from nearby roads.

A single massive tower remains from the original castle construction, standing as the sole witness to the structure's earliest architectural period.
