On summer Saturdays the estate stays open into the night and the château and garden are lit with thousands of candles, like the party Fouquet gave for Louis XIV in 1661 and which cost him his freedom. In 2026 it was every Saturday from 16 May to 26 September, from 11:00 to 21:30 (last admission at the ticket office).
Prices and booking
In 2026, château and garden €22, reduced €18.50, garden only €16; free for under-4s. Booking compulsory. The 2027 dates are announced in spring on the château's website.
