Origin and history

The Château de Moulin Neuf is a building located in the commune of Villeneuve-sur-Cher, in the Centre-Val de Loire region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history. This monument therefore remains partially mysterious for local historians.

The castles of this region, often linked to feudal history or the rural economy, played a central role in social and agricultural organisation. In Villeneuve-sur-Cher, as elsewhere in Sologne, these buildings could be used as seigneurial residences, land management centres or river control points, such as the Cher. Their presence generally reflected the strategic or economic importance of the site at a given time.
