Château de Tilloloy

Somme, Hauts-de-France

Six kilometres from Roye, in the Somme, the Château de Tilloloy stands in a fifteen-hectare park. Characteristic of the Louis XIII period, the building, 60 metres long under a mansard roof, has elegant brick façades with stone dressings, pierced by 114 doors and small-paned windows.

Surrounded by dry moats crossed by a bridge, it opens onto a large paved hall with a grand staircase of dressed stone and a wrought-iron banister. A huge wall painting shows the family tree of the Belleforière-Soyécourt family, from whom the present owner descends.

The château's salons are now rented out for receptions.
