Château du Plessis-Mareil

En un regard

Le château en bref

The Château du Plessis-Mareil stands in Saint-Viaud, in Loire-Atlantique, on one of the oldest seigneuries of the Pays de Retz. The Mareil family is attested there in the fourteenth century (Robert de Mareil in 1382). In the seventeenth century, the seigneury belonged to the Carné family, and then, at the Revolution, to the du Bot de Talhouët family. The main building dates from the seventeenth century according to Infobretagne. The fuie (dovecote), the only part under protection, was listed as a monument historique by order of 1 March 1978 (Mérimée PA00108823); its dating varies between sources (fourteenth or fifteenth century). Private property.
