Château Vanderbilt, French manor estate in Carrières-sous-Poissy, France.

Château Vanderbilt is a Louis XIII-style manor built in 1907 by architect Henri Guillaume for William Kissam Vanderbilt. Its red brick and pale stone facade has a projecting stone bay on the left, a recessed centre with a three-arched loggia, and a right wing under a lower roofline. The steep hipped roof carries three dormer windows and a tall chimney, and a rectangular reflecting pool with a tiered fountain lies in front.

The château was built in 1907 at the request of William Kissam Vanderbilt, grandson of the American industrialist Cornelius Vanderbilt. Its construction reflected the wealthy family's ambition to establish a European presence and lifestyle beyond their American holdings.

The castle now hosts digital and sound art projects, where artists work together on experimental creations. Visitors experience how a historic estate has transformed into a space for contemporary artistic work.

The château stands in Carrières-sous-Poissy, in the Yvelines, near the Maisons-Laffitte racecourse on the Paris–Deauville line. Since 2012 it has belonged to the CA2RS and is run by the Vanderlab association, founded in 2013 within Caserne Éphémère, for sound and digital arts residencies, studios and a Fablab. Check the programme before coming, as access follows these activities rather than casual visits.

The estate originally featured three concentric horse racing tracks, revealing Vanderbilt's passion for equestrian sports and training. These specialized facilities were a rare and expensive addition for a private European property of that era.
