Château de la Maison-Neuve stands in Montournais (Vendée), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The Château de la Maison-Neuve stands in Montournais, in the Vendée region, on a mound that recalls the site's medieval origins. Built in the second half of the 15th century, the complex underwent several later building phases, with outbuildings reworked in the following century and a chapel restored in the 17th century. The 18th century panelling adds a further layer to this architectural sequence spanning several eras.
