En un regard
Le château en bref
The Logis de la Talbardière, north of Archigny (Vienne), retains from a 15th-century fortlet two square defensive towers and a keep. The property, which falls under the seigneury of Touffou, passed in 1512 to Jean Lucas and to his descendants Guillaume and François; the latter fitted out latrines, a cistern and a bread oven. The layout combines a square courtyard with a central well, the master's house, the farm buildings and the farmer's dwelling. A chapel, founded in 1610 by François Lucas and Claude de La Vau (Notre-Dame-de-la-Talbardie), was destroyed in 1787 and rebuilt afterwards. Private property.
