Châteaubriant Castle is a medieval castle transformed into a Renaissance palace. There you can discover the impressive fortifications, the elegant dwellings and the mysterious legend of Françoise de Foix, who died in the castle under mysterious circumstances. You can also admire the exhibition “In the Ink of Dreams”, which presents the works of contemporary artists inspired by the castle and its history. The castle is open every day from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

The Château de Châteaubriant is a medieval castle, heavily remodeled during the Renaissance, located at Châteaubriant in the French department of Loire-Atlantique in the Pays de la Loire region

The castle was established in the 11th century on the Marches de Bretagne and, like those of Vitré, Fougères, Ancenis and Clisson, it was responsible for defending Brittany against the County of Anjou. It is also the Breton counterpart of the Château de Pouancé, located in Anjou.
