"Roger de Bussy-Rabutin et le château de Chazeu" avec Magali MEUNIER

The ‘Causeries du patrimoine’ aim to explore heritage topics, linked to history and the arts, through a conversation with a professional from the sector or an expert on the subject in question. The audience is welcome to contribute to the discussion by asking questions or making comments.
Thomas Ménard will be in conversation with Magali Meunier about the life and times of Roger de Rabutin, Count of Bussy – known for his military exploits, his romantic escapades and his writings – whilst he resided in Chazeu (in the commune of Laizy) during the reign of Louis XIV.
This raises the question: How did the Count of Bussy – owner of a magnificent château bearing his name in the Côte d’Or, a man of war, a man of the court and a man of letters – come to fall in love with the land of Chazeu and its château to the point of making it his favourite place of residence?
Responding to questions from Thomas Ménard, Magali Meunier sheds light on the mysterious ties forged, during his exile, between Bussy-Rabutin and Chazeu.
