Talcy Castle is a Renaissance castle, rebuilt from 1520 by an Italian banker. Cassandra, the daughter of the first owner, inspires the poet Ronsard the famous verses «Mignonne, allons voir si la rose...» Diane, his niece, is the muse of the young Agrippa d'Aubigné. Cassandre’s daughter counts in his direct descendants Alfred de Musset. One of the last owners, Albert Stapfer, is the first translator of the German poet Goethe. It is decorated with a collection orchard with many trained forms (field 7 ha, orchard 1 ha).
