About the location

Château des Rochers-Sévigné
Route d'Argenté-du-Plessis,35500, Vitré
  • Ille-et-Vilaine
  • Bretagne
In 30 metres above the valley of Vallière, the Castle of Rocks, old(former) property of Mathefelon, is built at the end of the XVth century by Sévigné. From 1644 till 1690, he(it) shelters the stays of Marie de Rabutin-Chantal, marchioness of Sévigné. The park or wood of decoration is the work of the épistolière, while the French-style garden was commanded(ordered) by his son, Charles de Sévigné, to André Le Nôtre. The domain is acquired in 1715 by the Hay des Nétumières who will restore the castle and its dependences(outbuildings).
