Château de La Villaumaire, Medieval castle in Huismes, France.
The Château de La Villaumaire features Gothic architecture with a main southern facade, located within the Loire-Anjou-Touraine Regional Natural Park.
The castle was built on Gallo-Roman foundations around 1400, with Martin Péquineau, Master of Royal Artillery under Charles VII, as its first known owner.
