Château de la Morinerie, Protected castle in Écurat, France.
The castle features a central pavilion with a rounded roof, flanked by two long wings extending over 80 meters in length.
Pierre Senné, captain of bridges and towers in Saintes, became the first documented owner of La Morinerie noble house in 1593.
The architecture combines military elements with late mannerist style, representing the evolution of French castle design in the 17th century.
The facades and roofs received official protection status as historical monuments through a ministerial decree on December 3, 1969.
The castle entrance displays a prominent stone dome, while its foundation uses large stone blocks contrasting with regular masonry above.
