The Château de la Garnache was an imposing 13th-century defensive complex at the heart of a very important seigneury that included Challans and Beauvoir-sur-Mer, extending as far as the Île d'Yeu and Noirmoutier. It was one of the strongholds of the Marches of Brittany, owned by the lords of Clisson, notably Gilles de Rais.
Today, only the moat, visible from the road, and two towers stand in the middle of a park accessible by stairs.
