Take part in a historic stroll including the castle and part of its park.

Discover the castle of Dormans, the former home of the family of Dormans for nearly 300 years, and many other prestigious families in the wake, until the 20th century.
The Castle of Dormans (14th-18th centuries) and its park were the original crucible of the constitution of the village of Dormans over the centuries. It is now communal property and receives many activities. However, it is not regularly open to the public.
The guided tour will be an opportunity to evoke the history of the place by walking both around the castle and inside.
For people with mobility difficulties, go to the castle around 3.30pm. The tour includes stairs.
Access: Pedestrian access, vehicles and bicycles by the rue du Moulin or by the inside of the open park (300 meters inside the park to reach the mill).
