This castle was enlarged and raised in the XIXth century in imitation of the architecture of the beginning of the XVIIth century by Mrs Paul de Charnacé
This private property consists of a large park and an ancient castle flanked by four towers and surrounded by pits. A few characters, made this place their home, paying tribute to the Earl of Champagne: Robert d'Aulnoy in 1171, Thomas d'Aulnoy or Houssière in 1250. The latter held, as received from the king, the house of Houssière. In 1516 Germaine de Foix, sister of Gaston de Foix, seigneur of Aragon and lady of Coulommiers built the land of the Houssière, in favour of its notary, Jehan de Beldon, to reward him for his good and loyal services. The four corner turrets were built under François I in 1520 on an existing house. Became a hunting pavilion under Henry IV, it was enlarged and raised in the th century by imitating the architecture of the early th century by Madame Paul de Charnacé. Ancient woodwork. House above the gate. The domain had long belonged to the De Charnacé family (since 1809) before being resold to the Thomas family in 2014.
