Renaissance château, the first in Poitou, built by François de Rochechouart on the foundations of a medieval fortress.

This listed monument, built by François de Rochechouart around 1515 on the foundations of a medieval fortress, is a real feudal Loire château. The site, occupied since ancient times, became a royal farm in the 6th century, the residence of Clotaire1st, King of the Franks. The château you can admire today is the first Renaissance château built in Poitou. Illustrious owners and visitors such as Henri IV have stayed here. The site includes a pond (for fishing, picnics, arboretum...).

nous avons visité ce château et lavoir attenant lors des journées du patrimoine et ce fut une vraie découverte. déjà impressionnant de l'extérieur, surtout si l'on songe qu'il ne reste qu'une petite partie du château d'origine, l' exposition sur Jean François Cail, son empire industriel, la locomotive Crampton, est vraiment remarquable de documentation et la partie musée de la coiffe est également intéressante. le plus fut l'animation lavandière au lavoir.
