En un regard
Le château en bref
Château de Poyaller stands at Saint-Aubin, in the Landes. Built at the end of the 13th century on a levelled motte castrale, it is one of the few donjons maîtres erected in the département. The keep retains only three storeys. The main entrance was on the second level, probably reached by timber structures and protected by a bretèche, and a rectangular residential block measuring about 15 by 4 metres stood to the north, of which one stretch of wall survives. Having lost its defensive role, the castle served as a farm before being sold as national property during the Revolution. The remains have been listed as monuments historiques by order of 20 September 1996.
