About Château de Gaujacq
In the green countryside of the Landes, the Château de Gaujacq is an elegant and unusual seigneurial residence of the 17th century, built by a lieutenant-general of the king's armies. Rather than a vertical castle, it takes the form of a low, single-storey building arranged around a central Italian-style courtyard with an arcaded gallery, giving it a refined, almost Mediterranean character. Inside, richly furnished rooms evoke the age of Louis XIV, while the surrounding grounds are famous for a superb botanical garden and plant nursery, a paradise for garden lovers. Elegant, original and beautifully planted, the Château de Gaujacq offers a delightful combination of refined 17th-century architecture and outstanding gardens, a charming heritage and botanical stop in the peaceful countryside of the Landes, with fine views toward the Pyrenees on a clear day.
