LE CHATEAU FEODAL DE SIGOURNAIS

SIGOURNAIS

A 15th century feudal castle boasting multiple walls and seven towers, the “Château de Sigournais” is a listed Historic Monument.

Features include a magnificent keep with herringbone roof timbers, enclosed ramparts with machicolations and typical arrow-slits in the restored towers.
The rooms of the keep contain furnished reconstructions of a stately home of the period and a collection of over 600 coats of arms (from the Vendée, France and Europe). There is also an exhibition on “Wine and the Vine in the Middle Ages” and a look back over “30 years of restoration work”.
Funbooks and competitions for 8-12 year olds.
