The opulence that reigns in this castle is palpable, even in the Guardroom, which stands out for its sumptuousness. Designed at the end of the 16th century, this room features a painted beam ceiling.
Fully restored during the reign of Louis-Philippe, the room is adorned by artists Charles Moench and Alexandre Denuelle, who delicately incorporated the initials and coats of arms of the kings of France on the wainscoting and the painted canvases above them. The grand fireplace, created in 1836 by sculptor Plantar, includes two marble statues, Strength and Peace, by Mathieu Jacquet, which come from the "Belle Cheminée" of Henry IV, erected around 1600 in the adjacent grand hall.
The precious wood flooring, harmonizing with the ceiling, was laid in 1837, adding a touch of elegance to the ensemble. This room, benefiting from the kitchens installed on the ground floor, also served as an ordinary dining room for Napoleon III, reflecting its practical use despite its luxury.

L'opulence qui règne dans ce château est palpable, même dans la salle des Gardes, qui se distingue par sa somptuosité. Aménagée à la fin du XVIème siècle, cette salle est dotée d'un plafond à solives peintes.
Intégralement restaurée sous le règne de Louis-Philippe, la salle est ornée par les artistes Charles Moench et Alexandre Denuelle, qui ont délicatement incorporé les chiffres et les armoiries des rois de France sur les lambris et les toiles peintes qui les surmontent. La grande cheminée, réalisée en 1836 par le sculpteur Plantar, intègre deux statues en marbre, La Force et La Paix, de Mathieu Jacquet, qui proviennent de la "Belle Cheminée" d'Henri IV, élevée vers 1600 dans la grande salle voisine.
Le parquet en bois précieux, en harmonie avec le plafond, a été posé en 1837, ajoutant une touche d'élégance à l'ensemble. Cette pièce, bénéficiant des cuisines installées au rez-de-chaussée, a également servi de salle à manger ordinaire à Napoléon III, témoignant de son utilisation pratique malgré son luxe.
