Château de Lignières, Medieval castle in Lignières-Ambleville, France.
The castle features a three-story main building with two square pavilions at the corners, surrounded by moats fed by a river.
The castle was rebuilt in the early 17th century by architect Jehan Cosset for Charles Poussard on the foundations of a medieval structure.
Two rooms on the first floor maintain their original 17th-century fireplaces, demonstrating the construction techniques of the period.
Access to the monument is via a bridge crossing the moats, leading to an enclosed courtyard in front of the southern facade.
The pavilions' roof rests on machicolations, while a two-story rectangular wing extends from the corner pavilion of the southern facade.
