The origins
The first recorded instance of the estate dates back to the 16th century, with the construction of a “noble house of taste” by Étienne de Rostéguy de Lancre, member of the Parliament of Bordeaux and Lord of Tastes and Saint-André-du-Bois. The property remained in the name of the Lancre family for two hundred years.
In 1780, the castle is let to Catherine de Forcade, Baron of Malromé’s widow, who gives the domain its name.
In 1847, the castle is passed down to Jean de Forcade, President of the Council of State during Napoléon III’s reign, and his half-brother, the Marechal of Saint-Arnaud, Governor of Paris and Minister of War. They restored the castle in the style of Viollet-le-Duc.
