Manoir de Classé stands in Fromentières (Mayenne), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 15th century, first quarter of the 16th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The Manoir de Classé, in Fromentières in the Mayenne department, is a manor house whose oldest parts date back to the late 15th century, with a round tower recalling an earlier 14th-century fortified house. Inside, visitors can find a seigneurial hall with a granite fireplace, a kitchen with its scullery, and a spiral staircase leading to apartments decorated with 17th-century wall paintings, flower bouquets and landscapes set within geometric panels. The estate, now privately owned, has a turbulent past, including a seizure and sale at the end of the 17th century.
What to know
- The manor is privately owned and currently offered for seasonal rental rather than organised as a regular tourist visit.

- The interior, with its old fireplaces and 17th-century wall paintings, is not open to the public on a regular visiting schedule.
