Built in the 16th century, Château de Mirville is where Pierre de Coubertin developed a love of sports that would eventually inspire him to revive the ancient Olympic Games into the modern Games. Coubertin’s private study has been transformed into a remarkable sporting suite that pays homage to the modern Olympic Games history – and it could be yours for the night!

The space
Guests will sleep in a high-ceiled room in the heart of the château, a space that originally functioned as Coubertin’s private study. Guests who secure a booking will take a journey through time and Olympic greatness. Prepare to enjoy:
- The opportunity to play with n°1 French professional tennis player Caroline Garcia on the grounds where one of the first games of lawn tennis was supposedly played in France.
- A private tour of the entire estate by your Host, Coubertin’s great grand nephew, Jacques.
- A punt on the lake where Coubertin developed his love of rowing, followed by a picnic of French delicacies on a specially constructed floating pontoon.
- An immersion into the origins of the Olympics including exclusive access to historic memorabilia such as Coubertin's 1892 Olympic Manifesto, a personal document featuring the rings for the first time as originally sketched by Coubertin and an original ticket from France's first Games in 1900.
- A selection of items from the very latest IOC Olympic Collection named in honor of Pierre de Coubertin.

Guest access
Guests will sleep in a room at the heart of Château de Mirville, childhood home of its founder Baron Pierre de Coubertin, nestled in a small valley in the Pays de Caux, Normandy. The building’s origins can be traced back to the 16th century when it was initially constructed as a fortified manor house by the noble Mirville family. Today, Château de Mirville stands as a testament to France's Olympic legacy and architectural heritage.

During your stay
The host will be on site, and ready to help should you need any assistance.
