Château du Rivau: still open despite extensive damage to the roof.

La Nouvelle République reports here that Sunday's fire caused considerable damage to the roof and parts of the building that the Château remains open. It is thought that the fire was probably caused by an electrical fault and is not believed to be malicious. Unfortunately the library which had many old books was destroyed.
