Château de Bussy-Rabutin

Rue du Château, 21150 Bussy-le-Grand

Come and meet one of the most flamboyant courtiers of the great Louis XIV, Count Roger de Bussy-Rabutin, and discover his home, whose décor is straight out of a life-size comic strip! A colourful figure from Burgundy, a soldier, a man of the world and a quick-witted academician, one of his pamphlets would bring about his downfall! He found himself condemned to exile. Whilst awaiting an unlikely return to favour, he set about creating an interior décor that evoked his nostalgia for the Court and reflected his feelings. Come and experience the life of a 17th-century nobleman before concluding your visit with the restored apartments of the Counts of Sarcus, which will allow you to discover a little-known chapter in the monument’s history and gain an insight into the private life of a 19th-century aristocratic family. Guided tours are available during the All Saints’ Day, Christmas and winter school holidays, and from 1 April to 31 May at 10.15 am and 2.30 pm. From 1 June to 30 September, guided tours take place at 10.30 am, 2.30 pm and 3.30 pm.
