The construction of the Haras National du Pin took place in several stages, starting with the large stables number 1 and 2 and the saddleries prior to the construction of the castle. A witness to the classical architecture of the Grand Siècle, the castle (photo) was built between 1719 and 1724. However, it was not until the beginning of the 19th century, on the plan of Desessart dated 1807, that all the buildings necessary for the operation of the stud farm appeared. A racetrack, stables - Charmettes, Bois, of the racetrack - sheds, a large fodder store, and a riding shed were added over the course of the 19th century.
