The Venue History
16th century (foundations dating to 14th century) · Brick and stone Renaissance style (brique et pierre)
Built at the end of the 16th century on the site of an old feudal fortress with foundations dating to the 14th century, as demonstrated by its still-visible moats. The chateau is a typical residence of the Ile-de-France region, also called the 'Petit Fontainebleau'. The wrought iron horseshoe staircase on either side of the listed building provides access to the reception rooms. The name Bourron originates from a spring on the grounds, meaning 'bubbling spring'. The place has been registered on the supplementary inventory since 1926 and classified since 1971 as Historic Monument.
