The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Construit dans la seconde moitié du 18e siècle par l'oncle de Châteaubriand, l'édifice est une maison rurale de plan rectangulaire s'élevant sur trois niveaux. Calées par deux cheminées monumentales au départ des croupes de pignon, les façades sont de composition classique. A l'intérieur, la lisibilité de la distribution d'origine a été perturbée par les cloisonnements du 19e siècle. La chambre de l'écrivain y est conservée.

The text above is the record as published by the Ministère de la Culture, in French.

Built in the second half of the 18th century by the uncle of Châteaubriand, the building is a rural house of rectangular plan rising over three levels. Braced by two monumental chimneys at the start of the hip gables, the façades are of classical composition. Inside, the legibility of the original layout has been disturbed by 19th century partitioning. The writer's bedroom is preserved there.
