Château du Champ de Bataille

The Château du Champ de Bataille is a 17th-century Baroque château in the Eure department of Upper Normandy, built for Alexandre de Créquy between 1653 and 1665. It sits in formal French gardens on a broad low plain between the rivers Risle and Iton and has been restored in recent decades with its historic parterres and bosquets reconstructed.

As it stood in 1665

The shape it held in its prime.

A long, symmetrical brick and stone Baroque corps de logis with steep slate mansard roofs and a central stone pavilion capped by a small domed lantern; the facades show alternating red brick panels and pale stone quoining and horizontal dressings. A straight cobbled drive and gravel forecourt lead to a pedimented central entrance with tall arched windows above. Formal parterres of clipped box and aligned alleys extend from the forecourt into a geometric French garden.
