Biography

He was born in Juigné-sur-Sarthe, the youngest son of Antoine de Castellane and a member of the House of Castellane. [1] His elder brother was Boni de Castellane.

He studied at the Paris Institute of Political Studies and entered politics at a young age, being elected to the Chamber of Deputies as a representative of Cantal in 1902, when he was 27. He lost his seat in 1906, was reelected in 1919 and again in 1928. [2] Between 1930 and 1932 he was vice-president of the Chamber. [2] In 1938 he was elected senator for Cantal.
