Chateau Marcellus is located on the territory of the commune of Marcellus in the department of Lot-et-Garonne, near Bordeaux and it dominates the beautiful Garonne Valley. The land and the castle belonged until 1581 to Henri de Navarre of duché d'Albret. The medieval castle was a fortress which defended the plain of the Garonne, and of which nothing remains to this day. The construction of a new c
astle was undertaken around 1585 and the works leading to the current shape of the Chateau Marcellus were carried out between 1772 and 1778 under the direction of the architect Bonfins. Chateau Marcellus is becoming a unique place where we share our vision of high-end hospitality, based on respect for traditions, history and the art of living. We hope that the experiences lived in Château Marcellus allow our guests to feel immersed in French history and culture. Château Marcellus features a large collection of antiques, sculptures and architectural pieces from the 16th to the 19th century displayed on-site, in the Chateau, and outside, in the park. We hope you’ll enjoy the charm, elegance and comfort of our private 35-hectare Domaine.
