Manoir de Coyolles stands in Coyolles (Aisne), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Coyolles Manor is a 16th-century lordly residence that once belonged to the lords of les Fossés. Built in the style typical of manors in the Villers-Cotterêts region, it consists of a turretted main building arranged around a enclosed courtyard accessible via a fortified gatehouse. The complex, completed by a dovecote, outbuildings and a walled kitchen garden that is exceptionally rare for its period, stands as a remarkably well-preserved testament to rural aristocratic life in the ancien régime.

What to know

The manor is listed as a historical monument, which commits to its preservation but does not necessarily mean it is open to the public.
The complex includes not only the main turretted house but also the dovecote, outbuildings, the fortified perimeter with its corner turrets and the period vegetable garden.
Protected for the homogeneity of its layout, from the entry gatehouse to the boundary walls and secondary buildings, this manor exemplifies the architectural and functional coherence of 16th-century rural lordly residences.
