CHATEAU DE CHERVEUX
This castle has 6 grandiose levels, monumental fireplaces, a series of lamp-ends of very high quality
A small jewel, this château was rebuilt in 1470 by the Scotsman Robert Cunningham, brother-in-arms of the Lord of Parthenay against the English, then captain of Louis XI's guard. The guided tour is a rich experience! You'll discover the castle's moat, keep-gate, towers and turrets. Inside, against a backdrop of Franco-Scottish relations, you enter the loggia rooms (splendid upturned ship's hull frame), reach the star-shaped keep, a masterpiece of its kind, and access the machicolated parapet walk and its humorously sculpted brackets.
