Manoir du Châtelier stands in Frazé (Eure-et-Loir), 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). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The Manoir du Châtelier, a sixteenth-century structure on a fortified mound, served as an outpost for the nearby château of Frazé. Rebuilt following destruction during the Hundred Years' War, it combines residential quarters with defensive features, including embrasures in its walls and an irregular plan organised around pavilions and towers. Decorative diamond-patterned brick combined with dressed stone for framing and corners distinguishes its exterior.
What to know
- The building has been protected as a historical monument since 1975, with its exterior, roofing, an interior staircase, and certain fireplaces designated under this status.
- The structure occupies an elevated position marked by ditches, which affects access depending on terrain conditions.
