Manoir de la Chapelle stands in Hotot-en-Auge (Calvados), in the Normandie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Built in the 17th century at Hotot-en-Auge, this manor is distinguished by the exceptional richness of its painted interior decoration. The upper floor bedroom preserves a rare collection of wall paintings from the Pays d'Auge region: foliage scrollwork framing large circular cartouches adorned with flowers and fruits, beams decorated with alternating floral baskets and bouquets, and false marble enhanced by naive landscapes. A tower was added later to the centre of the rear facade.
