Origin and history

The Château de Vernie is a historic monument located in the municipality of Vernie, in the department of Sarthe (region Pays de la Loire). Built in the 17th century, it has been classified as historical monuments since 14 February 1978, especially for its facades, roofs and interior woodwork. The Scarron Pavilion and the wing of the commons are the most emblematic parts still preserved today.

The castle is located about 1.5 km west of the village of Vernie, in the historical region of Maine. Its architecture, partially preserved, includes protected elements such as the three rooms on the fourth floor of the Scarron Pavilion, with their original woodwork. These features make it a notable example of the Sarthian architectural heritage of that time.

Available sources, including Wikipedia and Monumentum, confirm its status as a historical monument and its precise location in the municipality of Vernie (code Insee 72370). The castle is referenced in the Mérimée base, which attests to its heritage importance. However, no information is provided on its current accessibility or contemporary uses.
