Manoir d'Argouges, Manor house in Vaux-sur-Aure, France.
The Manoir d'Argouges features two courtyards separated by moats, with eleven monumental fireplaces distributed throughout the stone structure.
Built around 1500 by Pierre d'Argouges, the manor underwent transformation into a farm in 1632, marking a shift in its primary function.
A local legend tells of the Fairy of Argouges, with a footprint supposedly visible on one of the manor's window ledges.
The manor, located at coordinates 49.3214, -0.720205, remains under private ownership since 1983 and requires advance arrangements for visits.
The building displays architectural elements from both medieval and Renaissance periods, including preserved dependencies and a dovecote near the main structure.
