Plessis-Josso castle, Medieval manor in Theix-Noyalo, France

The stone fortress stands beside a large pond, featuring defensive towers, crenellated walls, and Gothic windows within its complete enclosing structure.

Constructed in 1330 by Sylvestre Josso, squire of Duke Jean III, the castle served as a residence for Breton dignitaries during regional conflicts.

The ground floor hall contains a preserved crédence de justice, a wall cabinet where lords stored administrative documents of the manor.

The castle opens for guided tours during summer months and requires advance booking for group visits of minimum 15 persons throughout the year.

The manor maintained control over 1,500 hectares of land, including multiple mills, baker's ovens, and a private port in the Gulf of Morbihan.
