Château Le Rocher Portail.

Le Rocher Portail castle was a private residence for 400 years and has been open to the public since 2017. Built between 1596 and 1617, on the foundations of a former medieval castle, it became a listed Historic Monument in 1961. It is surrounded with moats which are supplied with water from the little River Loisance and a vast lake in which the majesty of the castle is reflected. The castle is accessed by an exceptional drawbridge. The castle’s name comes from the fact that it stands on a rock, visible at the bottom of the facade. The word “Portail”, meaning gate, comes from the fact that it is at the gateway of Brittany.
The castle has spanned every era, unscathed by looting and war. This superb 3000 m² showcase has thus preserved an amazing wealth of antique furniture and decorations.
