Description The title of vidame of Chartres was, under the Ancien Régime, attached to the lands of [La] Ferté-Arnault. The most famous men to bear the title vidame de Charteres were the English soldier Thomas de Scales, 7th Baron Scales (d. 1460), and the famous memoirist Louis de Rouvroy, duc de Saint-Simon. The chateau was Saint-Simon's main country house. At the French Revolution the seigneur was Jean-Joseph de Laborde, an ennobled business man with progressive views, who was to be guillotined in 1794. Its chateau is now a roofless shell.
