The Château de Commarin is a family seat of the comte de Vogüé. It has passed through 26 generations in the same family, though it has often passed through the female line. The castle and gardens are open to the public.

The first documented witness dates back to 1214. Through its long history it has undergone many enlargements, embellishments and restorations. The castle's present interior is mainly due to its furnishing in the early 18th century by Marie-Judith de Vienne, marquise de Damas d’Antigny. She was the grandmother of Talleyrand, whose mother spent her childhood at Commarin. 

The château is surrounded by an English landscape garden, constructed in the 19th century. However in 2004, a reconstruction of the former formal gardens was undertaken round the castle.

Commarin is also a venue for corporate and private events, such as meetings, receptions, weddings...

The Château de Commarin is open to visitors from April through November.
