The 16th-century Château Saint-Elix near Toulouse was the home to Madame de Montespan, the mistress to King Louis XIV, according to Curbed. The 20,236-square-foot, five-story castle is asking about $40 million and sits on a private park between the Atlantic and the Pyrénées.

The property is being marketed by Michaël Zingraf of Christie’s International Real Estate and features 10 bedrooms and terra cotta floors. [Curbed] —Christopher Cameron
