Montsabert castle stands in Brissac Loire Aubance, in Maine-et-Loire, on foundations dating back to the 14th century. Three connected buildings and two towers make up the ensemble, one tower being medieval, while the main residential block still carries its machicolated crown flanked by corner turrets. Ownership passing through the Laval, du Guesclin and Aubigné families left successive alterations, visible in carved details from different periods. A chapel, added at the end of the 16th century, completes the group.
