Facades and roofs of the castle and its outbuildings (case A 198): inscription by decree of 2 November 1979

Origin and history

The Château de Saint-Parres-aux-Tertres is an emblematic building of the second half of the eighteenth century, located in the eponymous commune of the Aube department, in the Grand Est region. This monument, whose architecture reflects the aesthetic codes of its time, is part of a rural setting marked by the agricultural and social transformations of the pre-revolutionary period. The castles of that time often served as residences for local elites, while playing an economic and symbolic role in the organization of territories.

Listed as historical monuments by order of 2 November 1979, the Château de Saint-Parres-aux-Tertres is distinguished by the protection of its facades and roofs, as well as those of its outbuildings. This official recognition underscores its heritage interest, although available sources do not specify its sponsor or the significant events in its history. The location of the castle, at the address 5100 Allée du Château, makes it a visual and historical landmark for the commune, in a department rich in architectural heritage.
