Château de Nanteuil, Heritage castle in Huisseau-sur-Cosson, France.

Château de Nanteuil stands on the north bank of the Cosson. Its main lodge has two storeys and eight bays, with a lower pavilion added to the east, all under a slate roof with dormer windows. The entrance projects forward, framed by two columns and topped by a triangular pediment. The site also holds stables and an old ice house built of stone and covered with earth.

The present château was built in the 18th century on older foundations beside the Cosson, modified in the 19th century and restored in 1975. In 1921 the Englishman William Gardnor-Beard bought it and, with his wife Anne-Marie Denisane, lodged British students learning French; the couple's successors continued this until 1968. During the Second World War the German army occupied the building, and the comte and comtesse de Bernard were arrested in September 1943 for resistance activities.

From 1921 the English owner William Gardnor-Beard and his wife Anne-Marie Denisane took in English students to improve their French, a practice the comtesse de Bernard continued until 1968. The entrance is framed by two columns and topped by a triangular pediment, and the house stands on the north bank of the Cosson.

Nanteuil is a private château on the north bank of the Cosson in Huisseau-sur-Cosson, so visits are not open to the public and access is by arrangement with the owners. The entrance sits in a projecting avant-corps framed by two columns under a triangular pediment, with the gravel courtyard in front. The grounds also hold the stables and an old stone ice house covered with earth.

General de Gaulle visited the castle in 1949, marking a notable moment in the property's history. This visit reminds visitors of the estate's role in post-war French history.
