Château de Champlâtreux

Recognized for its historical significance, it was officially designated a historical monument in 1989. Originally built as a country retreat for the distinguished Molé family, a prominent Parisian parliamentary lineage, the Château de Champlâtreux captivates visitors with its exquisite 18th-century architecture.

Everything you need to know about Château de Champlâtreux

First of all, its location is just perfect for a destination wedding – just a few minutes from Charles de Gaulle Airport. One of the estate’s most enchanting features is its landscape garden, masterfully designed by the Thouin brothers. The grounds offer a sweeping vista framed by trees, with a picturesque stone ornamental pond at its center. Nearby, the beautifully preserved stables form a U-shaped ensemble, complete with intricately carved wooden stalls, a saddle room, a coach house, and antique drinking troughs. 

Inside the château, elegant salons boast Versailles parquet flooring and exquisitely painted wooden paneling, while the grand marble and stone entrance hall adds to the property’s timeless charm. With its vast and picturesque surroundings, the château provides an idyllic setting for weddings, receptions, balls, and other grand celebrations.
