Manoir de la Singerie, dit la Cigogne stands in Saint-Avertin (Indre-et-Loire), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
At Saint-Avertin, on the edge of Tours, the manor of la Singerie, also called la Cigogne, presents a long 17th-century main house behind a courtyard enclosed by an iron gate topped with pyramids and spheres. Two service pavilions, each with a low turret, flank the main façade, centred on a triangular pediment and a wrought-iron balcony. The park stretching behind the building completes this rural estate, once owned by the seminary of Tours.
