Colbert Castle, Maulévrier

Highlight • Castle

17th century castle that belonged to the Colbert family (which a priori has nothing to do with Louis XIV's famous controller general of finance). Stofflet, one of the leaders of the Vendée insurgents, was the hunting ranger of the estate. The castle suffered the ravages of the Vendée wars and was rebuilt according to the original plans in the 19th century. It is currently a luxury hotel restaurant adjoining the famous oriental park. The castle's vegetable garden can also be visited.

Maulévrier Oriental Park

Highlight • Other

Entrance to the park which is hardly visible from the road. With its 29ha, it is the largest Japanese-inspired park in Europe which can be visited through the ticket office.
Originally, this garden was part of the outbuildings of the neighboring Château Colbert. The estate was bought by the Bergère family at the end of the 19th century. The son-in-law of the family, Alexandre MARCEL, a famous orientalist architect, converted the park into a Japanese landscape, notably using molds and pieces from the 1900 Universal Exhibition in which he participated.
