Logis de la Jobtière stands in La Forêt-sur-Sèvre (Deux-Sèvres), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The Logis de la Jobtière is a residence built around 1480 in Deux-Sèvres, organized around a closed courtyard surrounded by water-filled moats. The main building, flanked by a stair tower, occupies the north side; outbuildings line the western side. The whole reflects the residential architecture of the late 15th century.

- The interior layout includes two staircases: one spiral staircase in the tower, the other placed between the two main rooms.
