It is in this XVIIIth century Beauce manor house that Amand-François Fougeron, councillor of the king and justice of the peace of Orgères proceeded from January to May 1798, in the big room, to the interrogation of three hundred bandits of the band of «drivers of Orgères» locked in the cellars of the castle. The dovecote, from the sixteenth century, houses the death masks of those condemned to death. The park, very sober, designed in 1756 by a gardener of Versailles of the school of Le Nôtre, is designed in two successive parts, at the same level, extended by a central trompe l'oeil aisle focused on the setting sun on the evening of August 15 in honour of the wife of the master of the place named Marie. This is the perfect example of the “garden-axis” adorned with lawn bowls, green carpets, topiaries, groves and carved charmilles. Network of aisles.
