Château Turpault, Medieval-style castle in Quiberon, France
The Château Turpault rises from a cliff on the Pointe de Ber Er Lann, featuring stone towers and Gothic architectural elements overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
Built between 1904 and 1910 by Georges Turpault, a textile manufacturer from Cholet, the castle endured German occupation during World War II with two bunkers added.
The castle represents the architectural preferences of wealthy French industrialists during the Belle Époque period, combining medieval and Anglo-Norman influences.
The castle remains a private property, but visitors can observe its exterior and architecture while walking along the coastal paths of Quiberon peninsula.
The location of Château Turpault on the rocky coastline required specific construction techniques to protect it from maritime erosion and strong Atlantic winds.
