The Chateau looks out over the valley, its gardens gently sloping down to the river. It is the last remaining evidence of the fortifications built from the 11th century. Classed as a historic monument in 1930, the chateau of La Roche Jagu has since 1958 belonged to the Cotes d'Armor Council.
Gardens of yesterday and today will tempt and delight all your senses! Water is an omnipresent element of the chateau. There are numerous palm trees and exotic species.
The Domaine de le Roche Jagu is a site of exceptional landscape design.
