Manoir dit Cour d'Elu stands in Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives (Calvados), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives, by the river, stands a stone manor house from the 16th century alongside a timber-framed annex of the same period. Known as the Cour d'Elu, the ensemble reflects Norman domestic architecture of the Renaissance era. What draws the eye from the street is chiefly the timber-framed facade extending the stone dwelling.
