Historic Castle

CHÂTEAU DE TANLAY

The construction of the chateau began in the early sixteenth century on the existing foundations of an ancient fortress. In 1533 the property was bequeathed to Louise de Montmorency, sister of the Constable Anne de Montmorency and widow of Marshal Gaspard de Coligny. Their youngest son, Francois de Coligny, Lord Andelot, undertook the project construction of a large chateau (1550 - 1568), right through the Religious War (St. Bartholomew 1572).
