Manoir de Combres stands in Moitron-sur-Sarthe (Sarthe), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: third quarter of the 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Combres Manor is a small lordly residence from the late 15th century, built around 1480 according to dendrochronological analysis. It comprises a principal block with a polygonal staircase tower to the south-east and a secondary building to the south-west. The site retains its moats and access bridge, providing a rare record of 15th-century architectural authenticity on a modest scale.
