The chateau grounds are lovely and peaceful. On a nice day, you can spend an afternoon walking and sitting in the sun. The chateau is typical, but well endowed. It does not replace visiting Versailles, but is a less daunting experience.. Located SE of Paris, near Melun.
Beautiful place, castle and garden built by Fouquet, itnendent of Kingdom who inspired the king Louis XIV for Versailles. The king was so jalouse after his visit that he put Fouquet to jail as a thief .
