Logis de la Tourgarnier, Seigniorial residence in Angoulême, France.

The Logis de la Tourgarnier features a round-arched door with a postern gate, while its windows display decorative elements that imitate defensive crenellations.

Construction of this noble residence took place during the 16th century, and King Charles IX with Catherine de Medici stayed here for five days during their 1565 visit.

This historical monument received official recognition through two separate classifications, first in 1925 for its interior portal and again in 1949 for its crenellated wall.

Located at 189 Rue de la Tourgarnier near the Anguienne River, the property includes a converted mill that now functions as a guesthouse and art gallery.

The central pentagonal pavilion of the façade retains a designated space that once displayed the family coat of arms above the main entrance.
