Château de Payré stands in La Peyratte (Deux-Sèvres), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 14th century, 15th century, 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

What the French Ministry of Culture records

Le château est inclus dans un espace polygonal délimité par des bâtiments de ferme. Il date de la fin de la période médiévale (15e-16e siècle) et présente un caractère fortifié. Sa façade postérieure est cantonnée de deux tours rondes aux angles. La façade sur cour est percée d'une porte centrale surmontée d'un fronton mouluré. La chapelle est accolée au corps de logis. Il s'agit d'un édifice rectangulaire sous charpente moulurée du 14e siècle. Les restes du portail et de la baie orientale se distinguent dans la maçonnerie. Cette chapelle est décorée de peintures murales (14e siècle) peu lisibles d'où se détachent de grands personnages en pied (apôtres ? Martyre de saint Sébastien ?).
