Park of
Marbache Castle
A remarkable site for walking and tourist stopovers in a beautiful wooded area. Recently renovated by a handful of volunteers from Marbache associations and the town's technical services, the term "green setting" takes on its full meaning here. Come discover it or rediscover it after a walk. The small playground nearby will be a delight for your children. There's even a bowling green for older children. The castle is located 200 meters to the right of the church. Originally, this complex included buildings, an interior courtyard, a park, land, and a pond. Around 1260, the villa was under the control of the "Avant-Garde" lordship created in Pompey by the Counts of Bar. Jean, son of Huard de Morey, squire of Count Pierre de Bar, received the fiefdom in Marbache in 1333, he then became Jean de Marbache. He was undoubtedly the first lord to reside in Marbache. Over the centuries, several noble families succeeded each other. Then, the De Lande De Venon family resided at the castle from 1470 until the Revolution. In the mid-1937th century, the Thirion de Noville family acquired the castle, the park, and its pond. In 1992, Messrs. Schwab and Meyer de Nancy became the owners. In XNUMX, the southern part of this complex and its park, acquired by the municipality, were transformed into a sociocultural center.
