Château de Couterne
The château is located in Couterne, 2 km from the Grand Domaine Bagnoles de l’Orne.
The Château
With its sober facade of brick and granite, two rounded corner towers nevertheless give the château a fancy touch. A beautiful stately home built in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Château Couterne covers twenty hectares. It is crossed by more than 3 km of wooded bridle paths ideal for walking or riding.
Take a guided tour of an exhibition of 250 historic and common-use objects, tracing the history of the house and the surrounding area, evoking the religious conflict between Catholics and Protestants, the Revolution and life in 19th century. Exhibition of very rare 18th century costumes.
