The manor of Sarceau stands in Sarcé, in the Sarthe department, on the remains of an estate dating back to the 11th century. Part of its walls go back to the 12th century, where traces of the former keep remain, while the main residence, with its hexagonal tower and spiral staircase, dates from the 15th and 16th centuries. The property was once linked to the family of the poet Pierre de Ronsard, before spending decades as a working farm and later undergoing a long restoration by successive owners. Around the house, troglodyte cellars, farm buildings and a garden form an ensemble that remains largely private.
