HISTORY
In the 19th century, the Count and the Countess of La Rochefoucauld-Bayers built a large Neo-Gothic castle on their La Potherie estate.

 

 

 They commissioned the Paris architect Louis Visconti, who was famous for the expansion of the Louvre to replace the original 16th century castle. The owners chose Rene Hode, a well-known Angevin architect who oversaw the construction project. The construction began in 1848 and was completed in 1854.
