About Château de Haroué
Château de Haroué is a beautiful castle located in the Meurthe-et-Moselle department of France. It was built in the mid-18th century in the Baroque style and is considered to be one of the finest examples of the style in the country. The castle was designed by Germain Boffrand, who also designed the interiors of the Palace of Versailles. The Château de Haroué has a distinctive pink color, which comes from the use of local sandstone in its construction. The castle is surrounded by a moat and a beautiful French garden, which has been classified as a "Remarkable Garden" by the French Ministry of Culture. The interior of the castle is also stunning, with beautiful frescoes, woodwork, and furniture from the 18th century. Visitors can explore the castle's many rooms, including the grand salon, the chapel, the library, and the dining room. The castle has a rich history and has been owned by the same family, the Beauvau-Craon family, since it was built. It has also been visited by many famous figures throughout history, including Marie Antoinette, who stayed at the castle on her way to meet her husband, Louis XVI, in Versailles. The Château de Haroué is now open to the public for visits and tours.
