Feudal motte (Case AD 72, 73): entry by order of 1 February 1980
Origin and history
The feudal motte of Aix-Noulette is a medieval monument located in the commune of Aix-Noulette, in the department of Pas-de-Calais (Hauts-de-France). This type of structure, characteristic of the Middle Ages, generally served as a defence point or seigneurial residence. Its strategic location reflects the need for territorial control and protection of local populations during this period.
The motte was listed as a Historic Monument by order of 1 February 1980, which underlines its heritage importance. Available data indicate that it is located precisely at 2 Rue de Boyeffles, although the accuracy of this location is considered poor (note 5/10). This type of monument illustrates the feudal organization of the region, marked by a rural society and local power structures centred around the lords and their fortifications.
