Summary[edit]

Description

Cette élégante demeure à l'italienne du XVIIIe siècle évoque, le Petit Trianon de Versailles.

En 1759, Charles-François Leblanc de Manarval, maître de forges et Directeur de la Manufacture royale de draps de Châteauroux, acquiert les terres de Bouges.

Il fait édifier le château bâti en pierre de taille, dont on attribue la construction à l'architecte du Roi Jacques-Ange Gabriel(1698-1782). On doit , entre autres, à Jacques-Ange Gabriel, le Petit Trianon de Versailles et le pont Jacques Gabriel de Blois, ainsi que la place de la Bourse à Bordeaux et la place de la Concorde.

En 1818, Talleyrand acquiert le château pour y installer sa chère nièce, la Duchesse de Dino. La Duchesse de Dino, Dorothée princesse de Courlande, était d'une grande beauté et d'une vive intelligence. Dorothée est née à Friedrichsfelde, près de Berlin, le 21 août 1793. Balzac, qu'elle n'aimait pas, l'a représentée, dans La Comédie humaine, sous les traits peu flatteurs de la marquise d'Espard, en particulier dans "l'Interdiction"(1836).

Dans "l'Interdiction", la marquise d'Espard veut faire interdire son mari sous prétexte de folie.

En 1917, le château est acquit par Henri Viguier, Président-directeur général du Bazar de l'Hôtel de Ville. Sans enfants, Henri Viguier lèguera le château à la Caisse nationale des monuments historiques en 1968.

This elegant Italian-eighteenth century evokes the Petit Trianon at Versailles.

In 1759, Charles-François Leblanc Manarval, ironmaster and Director of the Royal Manufactory sheets Chateauroux, acquires land Bouges.

He built the stone buildings, the construction of the King's architect Jacques-Ange Gabriel (1698-1782) is credited castle. We must, among others, Jacques-Ange Gabriel, the Petit Trianon at Versailles and Jacques Gabriel bridge of Blois, and the Place de la Bourse in Bordeaux and Place de la Concorde.

In 1818, Talleyrand bought the castle to install his beloved niece, the Duchess of Dino. Duchess of Dino, Dorothy Princess of Courland, was a great beauty and a keen intelligence. Dorothy was born in Friedrichsfelde near Berlin, August 21, 1793. Balzac, she did not like, was represented in The Human Comedy, under unflattering features of the Marquise d'Espard, especially in the "Prohibition" (1836).

In "Prohibition," the Marquise d'Espard wants to ban her husband on the grounds of insanity.

In 1917, the castle was acquired by Henry Viguier, CEO of Bazar de l'Hotel de Ville. Without children, Henry Viguier bequeathed the castle to the National Fund for Historical Monuments in 1968.
