About the location

Château

3 Grande rue, 52120 Dinteville

Haute-Marne
Grand Est

The origin of the castle goes back up(raises) to the 13th century but there remains(subsists) no element of the first building(ship) of this time(period). In the 16th century, the castle appeared so: on a rectangular platform surrounded with staves(moats), four very different facades protected by round towers in four angles. On the death of Joachim de Dinteville, in 1607, the castle is left neglected. The castle Renaissance will be bought and changed by the knight Guillaume Le Brun in 1701: a wing to the right and front walls(pediments) are added, giving to the facade a classic symmetrical structure. The castle is surrounded with staves(moats) and with a sported park. The castle and the park are registered in conformance with(for) historic monuments.
