Château de l'Aubinière

En un regard

Le château en bref

L'Aubinière is a former seigneurial manor house located in the commune of Arquenay, in Mayenne, in the former pays of Laval. The estate, described as a "ferme et logis" by Abbé Angot, was a fief vassal to the seigneurie of Arquenay and already appears as a château on Jaillot's map. The oldest part of the house is the kitchen-garden façade, flanked by a tower. Inside, a fireplace retains a hearth plate bearing the arms of the La Trémoïlle family. From the seventeenth to the eighteenth century, the estate passed from Pétronille Le Bouteiller, widow of a lord of Noyal, to Marguerite Lasnier, then to the Moraine family, before being acquired by Piquois, of Laval. At the beginning of the twentieth century, it belonged to the du Pontavice family, through marriage with the Lefebvre and de Regnier heirs.
