Discover a living castle

The Château de Cirey was marked by the presence of Voltaire who stayed there for 15 years, from 1734 to 1749, invited by the Marquise du Châtelet, a recognized physicist and metaphysician. Ambitious, eager for autonomy, jealous, envied, Emilie du Châtelet invests the masculine territory of science. A hard worker, she is one of the most brilliant minds of the Age of Enlightenment.

By immersing yourself in the life of Voltaire and the Marquise du Châtelet, the guided tour of the castle will allow you to discover a refined decor: lounges, Emilie du Châtelet's bedroom, large dining room, library, kitchens and a unique place, Voltaire's little theater.
