Château de Chevannes, Medieval castle in Saint-Racho, France.

The main building features pink stone construction with four mullioned windows on the eastern facade, flanked by two round towers with pepper-pot roofs.

The initial construction dates from the 14th century, followed by reconstruction in the 16th century and modifications during the French Revolution.

The castle wings form a U-shaped courtyard with a gallery supported by an octagonal column decorated with four-petaled rosettes.

The castle received historical monument status in 1977, with specific protection covering the facades and roofs of the main building.

A historic well at the estate entrance bears an engraved inscription from 1671, demonstrating the property's successive developments.
