Château de Marmousse, Heritage castle in Garnay, France.

The Château de Marmousse stands along the Blaise River valley with its main building extending between two pavilions featuring identical facades.

During the Middle Ages, the site transformed from a wooden tower on a feudal mound into a defensive structure against English invasions near Dreux Castle.

The estate includes both French-style gardens with a 400-meter canal and English landscaping added in the nineteenth century around the redirected river.

The Thureau-Dangin family maintains the property and organizes guided tours for visitors to explore the castle grounds and learn about its architecture.

The castle incorporates elements from different centuries, including eighteenth-century modifications by Vincent Maynon who created extensive water features and planted numerous trees.
