From the 16th century to the present day, the Château des Ormes has witnessed six centuries of history, transformation and renewal.

Shaped by the d’Argenson family and the great minds of the Enlightenment — Voltaire, Marmontel, Moncrif — it became a leading intellectual and artistic centre in the 18th century, before being revived in the 21st century under the initiative of Mr Abbou.
