Château de Mirvault

The Château de Mirvault is situated in the commune of Azé, within modern-day France. It was constructed by the civilization that inhabited this region, though specific origins beyond its French heritage are not detailed in the records.

During the 19th century, the château experienced significant renovation that modernized its structure within the context of the period. Following this restoration, it transitioned to a new role, serving as guest accommodation, with rooms designated for visitors. The château’s setting within a walled park adjacent to the Mayenne River reflects its ongoing residential and leisure functions.

Ownership of the estate passed through notable individuals connected by family ties. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Christian Le Tessier de Coulonge and Ludovic Le Tessier de Coulonge were prominent proprietors, both of whom died at the château in 1902 and 1910 respectively. Soon after, in 1911, the estate transferred to Comte Joseph Gouin d’Ambrière, a naval officer honored with knighthood in the Legion of Honor. His marriage in 1895 to Jacqueline Marie Charlotte Le Tessier de Coulonge connected the Gouin d’Ambrière family with the château, which remains in their possession today.
