Château du Fraisse, Historical castle in Nouic, France
The Renaissance main quarters of the castle feature an L-shaped layout with interior stair towers and decorated doors displaying polychrome marble elements.
Following destruction during the Hundred Years War, James des Monstiers rebuilt the castle around 1450, though its second floor was removed in the 17th century.
The castle maintains its legacy as a family residence since the 13th century while operating as a venue for ceremonies and gatherings.
The castle offers five guest rooms for accommodation and opens its doors for guided tours during summer months, revealing eight centuries of architectural history.
The castle's decorative elements use limestone from Chauvigny instead of local granite, marking an unusual choice in regional construction materials.
