Manoir de Chezelles stands in La Guerche-sur-l'Aubois (Cher), in the Centre-Val de Loire 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.

Chezelles Manor, built in the second half of the fifteenth century, stands at La Guerche-sur-l'Aubois as a dwelling and agricultural complex. Its architecture follows the squared courtyard plan, formerly surrounded by ditches and walls. Three towers define its silhouette: a prismatic one sheltering the staircase to the north, a triangular tower topped by a terrace on the east side, and a square tower to the south. Three large fireplaces remain inside the main building.

  • The manor and its agricultural outbuildings have been listed in the historic monuments inventory since 1994.
