This manor house on the banks of the Loire, in Saint-Cyr-sur-Loire, owes its renown to the writer Anatole France, who bought it at the end of 1914 and lived there until his death in 1924. The main building, flanked by two projecting pavilions, is accompanied by outbuildings set at a right angle and by terraced gardens overlooking the valley. It was built in the second half of the 18th century.
