History

In 1873, Charles de Bretagne, the great-grandfather of the current owner, marries Gabrielle de la Bajonnière whose father bought the estate of La Bijoire in 1843. Charles is the youngest of his family settled in the north of France in Douai. He leaves the family chateau to his elder brother and follows his wife in Vendée. He immediately asked a local architect, Mr. Guillerot, to do a project to expand the existing dwelling. The projects did not satisfy him so he decided to have the house destroyed and built a castle of Flemish style instead, that reminded him of his childhood. The work was completed in 1875. In 2014 his great-grandson, Hugues, architect, helped by his wife Catherine, painter, and his children and stepchildren, decided to restore and modernize the castle.

    • Meveilleuses vacances pour tous

      Nous avons passé un séjour spécialement agréable au Bigeoire. Le château et ses annexes ont accueilli notre nombreuse famille (4 génération!) qui n'a pas vu le temps passer. Les grands ont découvert la Vendée avec ses marais, ses plages et ses monuments. Les petits trouvèrent leur bonheur dans la piscine et le jolie parc. Ce fût donc de merveilleuses vacances pour tous! Nous vous remercions amicalement et chaleureusement.
