Château de Boisy, Medieval castle in Pouilly-les-Nonains, France.

The fortified residence features a fifteenth-century donjon surrounded by moats, with protected facades and roofing structures standing against the Loire landscape.

Jacques Coeur acquired the castle in 1447, though following his downfall in 1455, the property transferred to Guillaume Gouffier, the king's first chamberlain.

The castle retains architectural elements from multiple periods, including medieval defensive structures and later aristocratic modifications by the Gouffier family.

Located at coordinates 46.053902, 3.96099 in the Loire department, the castle stands approximately 3.8 kilometers from Saint-Haon-le-Châtel.

The Bief de Boisy canal, constructed during Jacques Coeur's ownership, demonstrates medieval water management through an intricate system of ponds.
