À propos du lieu

Château du Bouchet

Office Français de la Biodiversité, Rue du Bouchet, 45370 Dry

Loiret
Centre-Val de Loire

Castle of the XIXth century surrounded with a wooded park of about twenty hectares. The castle of Bouchet is connected(bound) in Cevenay by a long path, undoubtedly to anchor it symbolically in the old(former) heritage. It owes its splendid park sported to his first owner passionate about botany. The castle was built in 1853 on the vestiges of a building of the end of the XVIth century for the family Laage de La Rocheterie. The most famous representative of the latter(this last) was Maxim of Laage, writer and mayor of Dry shortly before the war of 1870\. The domain was acquired(bought back) in 1961 by the national office of hunting and of wildlife and welcomes a training centre for technicians and technicians of environment (game wardens).
