Château de Marçay

En un regard

Le château en bref

Marçay Castle, in Chouppes (Vienne), is a fief attested from the 11th century. At the beginning of the 16th century it was enclosed by walls, moats and towers. Remodelled in the Renaissance, it retains two courtyards surrounded by moats, decorated dormer windows and corner turrets with conical roofs. It fell into decline in the 20th century, and only ruins survive, including the chapel (12th–15th centuries), which is almost intact. Listed in 1925.
