Manoir des Couldraies stands in Saint-Georges-sur-Cher (Loir-et-Cher), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
This manor dating from the early 16th century, built near the Cher river for a canon of Saint Martin of Tours, is an example of Renaissance architecture from the Tours region. Its main pavilion retains carved decoration restored in the 19th century, and inside visitors can see a fireplace decorated with a fresco in the style of the second School of Fontainebleau. Later additions were made to the original building, including a 19th century tower. The estate, now a wine property, lies a few kilometres from the Château de Chenonceau.
What to know
- The manor is part of a working wine estate, which shapes how it can be visited.
- The façades, roofs, the painted ground floor fireplace and the dovecote have been listed as historic monuments since 1987.
- The 19th century section, with its square pavilion and towers, falls outside the protected area.
- The site lies about 2 km from the Château de Chenonceau, in the Loir-et-Cher département.
