Château des Monthairons takes study days, residential seminars, team-building programs and weddings in a four-star château hotel with 25 rooms and apartments, a restaurant and a spa. The house stands in a 14-hectare park on the banks of the Meuse at Les Monthairons, about 15 minutes from Verdun in northeastern France, so a group can work, eat and sleep on one site.
Seminars and company events
The château sells three seminar formats. The study day combines an equipped meeting room, a welcome coffee, breaks and lunch at the château restaurant. The residential seminar adds a gourmet dinner and a night in one of the 25 rooms and apartments. The team-cohesion format uses the park, the banks of the Meuse and the spa, which can be booked for the group. Meeting rooms come with a video projector, a paperboard and Wi-Fi, and a multifunction screen can be added on request. The site mentions a large, high-capacity seminar room alongside flexible, bright smaller spaces, and team-building activities can be arranged outdoors.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings use four connected salons on the ground floor for the drinks, the cocktail hour or the dinner, with a terrace for the vin d'honneur and a large reception hall that can be arranged in several ways. A mezzanine can also be set for a meal. Secular ceremonies take place in the park under old trees facing the château. The team offers gourmet catering, decoration made to measure and support through the planning, and guests can stay on site with breakfast included.
Rooms and capacities
The site names the four ground-floor salons, the large reception hall, the large seminar room, the mezzanine and the terrace, but gives no guest numbers. Capacities for a seminar or a wedding dinner should be confirmed with the château when asking for a quote.
Accommodation
The château has 25 rooms, including 3 apartments. Categories run from standard to very superior rooms, family duplexes, apartments with balneotherapy or a sauna, and a large duplex with chromotherapy. An elevator serves the building, and rooms and common areas are accessible to guests with reduced mobility.
Catering
The restaurant, La Cuisine du Château, is led by chef Benoît Thouvenin. The kitchen is described as both classic and modern, built on local and regional produce, and it covers every meal of a seminar from the morning coffee to the gourmet dinner.
History and setting
The château was built between 1857 and 1859 and came through both World Wars. Its park covers about 14 hectares and runs down to the Meuse. A spa of about 60 square meters offers a sauna, a hammam, a jacuzzi and a treatment room, which gives a residential group something to do between sessions.
Getting there
The address is 26 Route de Verdun, 55320 Les Monthairons. Verdun is about 15 minutes away by car, which places the château within easy reach of the town, its railway station and the main roads of the Meuse department.
