Château de Baugé stands in Saint-Cyr-la-Lande (Deux-Sèvres), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The château de Baugé stands in Saint-Cyr-la-Lande, in the Deux-Sèvres department, rebuilt in the 17th century after a fire destroyed the original manor. Its regular façade, marked by dormer windows with triangular pediments and a gateway bearing a coat of arms, reflects this rebuilding carried out by the La Ville family. Inside, two painted 17th-century fireplaces, in ochre and blue tones on a brown background, remain the most notable surviving decorative features. The estate, arranged around a courtyard enclosed by long outbuildings, remains a private property.
