Keeping a Castle Running Is No Fairy Tale
The Chateau de Haroué, an early 18th-century
castle built by Prince Marc de Beauvau-Craon, a cousin of King Louis XV, is
easily the most striking landmark in Haroué, a tiny French village 190
kilometers (118 miles) from the Swiss city of Basel. The village is home to
fewer than 500 residents, but the chateau’s open-air operas and art exhibits
help the town punch above its weight when it comes to cultural happenings. But
the town doesn’t own the castle. Indeed, it’s still in the family, and is
currently owned by Princess Minnie de Beauvau-Craon, a direct descendant of the
man who built it.
