Château de Beaumesnil

The Château de Beaumesnil, in the Eure, in Normandy, is an exceptional Louis XIII Baroque château built from 1633 to 1640, surrounded by an 80-hectare park designed by La Quintinie, Le Nôtre's assistant at Versailles.

The transparency of its architecture and its reflection in the ornamental pools and basins make the château and its moats, with their fountains, a harmonious whole. The château houses a permanent exhibition on the art of bookbinding since the 16th century and a remarkable library. It is partly listed as a historic monument.
