The castle of Villeconin was built at the end of the 14th century by Jean de Montagu, superintendent of finance of Charles VI. The Renaissance contributed to its beautification. Typical of medieval times with its keep, round tower and guard room, it is surrounded by moat on the edge of a park. This park full of charm enriched each year is composed of massifs of boxwood and a wooded part, of massifs of flowers where alternate perennials to flowering staggered, hydrangeas, shrubs and roses Accompanied by the owners, you will visit the guard room with its exceptional structure, the library, the Henri IV staircase and the dining room. The guided tour by the owner’s family integrates the park where everyone is also invited to walk freely
