September 12, 2025, Maison du Parc

Located in the heart of Le Bouchet, dominated by its castle, the Maison du Parc welcomes visitors to the renovated buildings of one of the castle's former farms. The materials used and the building's shape are a prime example of Brenne rural architecture. The Maison du Parc is a place to find information and explore. It includes a tourist information point, a video projection room, and a space for temporary exhibitions. There's also a shop with local products and a tasting room. There's also an outdoor picnic area with tables and benches.

Hard to miss, this ancient 11th century fortress stands proudly on a hill of red sandstone and dominates the area around it. Open to visits from April to November, this castle has been completely renovated to make you feel what it was like during its history, especially during the Hundred Years War.
