Manoir de la Roche-Thévenin stands in La Guyonnière (Vendée), 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 16th century, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The Manoir de la Roche-Thévenin, built in the second half of the sixteenth century, is a Vendée residence whose architecture reflects Renaissance craftsmanship. The main house and its outbuildings preserve notable features: a staircase, a kitchen fireplace, and a decorated archway attributed to Guillaume Grootaers, a master mason or sculptor of that period.

What to know

  • The listing as a historical monument, obtained in 1992, covers the facades and roofs of the main house and outbuildings, as well as specific interior elements.
  • The manoir is located in La Guyonnière, a small commune in Vendée, accessible by regional roads.
  • Since visiting conditions and opening hours are not specified, it is recommended to contact the local town hall or tourism offices before visiting.
