Tour carrée, Classified historical monument in Loudun, France.
The Château de Loudun features a central square tower and cylindrical fortifications that form an extensive defensive structure in limestone masonry.
Built between the 14th and 17th centuries, the castle served as a strategic stronghold during various periods of French regional conflicts.
The interior rooms maintain period decorative elements, including Louis XIV fireplaces and 19th-century wooden panels that reflect French aristocratic styles.
The estate encompasses 26 hectares, with 22 hectares of woodland and 4 hectares of parkland, providing multiple options for development and activities.
The vaulted cellars demonstrate medieval construction techniques and extend across multiple levels beneath the main structure of the castle.
