Château Jacquard : inscription by order of 2 February 1931
Origin and history
The Château Jacquard is a medieval building located in the commune of Sainte-Magnance, in the department of Yonne. Built in the 15th century, it represents a typical example of the castles of this period in Burgundy, region marked by defensive and residential architecture. Its designation as historic monuments in 1931 reflects its heritage importance and the desire to preserve this built heritage.
In the 15th century, Burgundy was a prosperous region, marked by a feudal society where castles played a central role. These buildings served as both seigneurial residences, symbols of power and places of protection for local populations. The Château Jacquard is part of this context, reflecting the social and economic dynamics of the time, although the specific details of its history and its occupants remain little documented in the available sources.
