The Château de La Desnerie is a magnificent 18th century building. Built in 1743 by the architect Jean-Baptiste Ceineray, it is surrounded by French gardens designed by André Le Nôtre. This historic estate, with its freestone facade and baroque details, offers guided tours and hosts cultural events.

Cycling
Castle dating from the 15th century and in its current form mainly from the 18th century.
A hiking trail runs along the Erdre, but it is only passable by mountain bike or gravel.
Namely that a more rolling path bypasses the castle to the west and crosses the wood of Desnerie to the south.

Listed as a Historic Monument, the **Château de la Desnerie** in La Chapelle-sur-Erdre is one of those superb residences that make the Erdre riverbanks famous. Built in the 14th century by a comrade-in-arms of Du Guesclin, then remodeled in the 18th century with a west wing designed by the famous Nantes architect Jean-Baptiste Ceineray, this elegant private estate is not open to visitors. However, it can be discreetly glimpsed through the trees by taking the coastal path or strolling through the **bois de la Desnerie**, a 15-hectare sensitive natural area ideal for a bucolic walk.
