Origin and history
The Château de Crémault, located in Bonneuil-Matours in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, is a monument dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. It is particularly known for its portal, which originally constituted the entrance to the castle of Traversay. This portal was moved to the Château de Crémault on an indeterminate date, when both properties belonged to the same owner. This transfer marks a notable episode of local architectural history, although the precise details of this operation remain unknown.
The portal of the château de Crémault was included in the inventory of Historic Monuments by order of 18 January 1930. This classification reflects the heritage value of this architectural element, which represents a vestige of 16th and 17th century styles. Today, the castle belongs to the municipality of Bonneuil-Matours, and its portal remains a symbol of the historical heritage of the region.
The information available on the Château de Crémault comes mainly from the Merimée base and from sources such as Monumentum. Although the site is located with an accuracy deemed fair (note of 5/10), its exact address is listed as 5364 Rue de Crémault in Bonneuil-Matours. No information is provided on public access, rental of rooms or possible guest rooms.
