Origin and history

Château des Tureaux is a building located in the commune of Méry-ès-Bois, in the Centre-Val de Loire region. The information available does not specify its construction period or its detailed history, but its existence is attested in the local archives. The castles of this region, often linked to feudal history or the evolution of the seigneuries, played a central role in the social and economic organization of the rural territories.

In Méry-ès-Bois, as in other villages in the Centre-Val de Loire, these monuments could serve as a seigneurial residence, a place of defence or a symbol of local power.
