About Château des Montgommery
At Ducey in the Manche, on the banks of the river Sélune near Mont-Saint-Michel, the Château des Montgommery is an elegant château of the early 17th century, a fine example of the refined architecture of the reign of Louis XIII. Built by the powerful Montgommery family, whose name is linked to the tragic accidental killing of King Henri II in a tournament, the château presents a harmonious façade and beautiful interiors, notably fine painted ceilings and monumental fireplaces. Restored by the town, it is open to visitors and hosts cultural events in a graceful setting by the river. Elegant, historic and beautifully sited, the Château des Montgommery offers a charming glimpse of early-17th-century architecture and a colourful chapter of French history, a rewarding heritage stop in the countryside of the Manche, close to the wonder of Mont-Saint-Michel.
