Origin and history

Cully Manor House is a medieval house built in the 15th century in the town of Cully, a commune in Moulins-en-Bessin, Calvados department. This monument, partially destroyed, is representative of the seigneurial architecture of the region, although its house body disappeared in 1965. Today, there is only one buttress barn, visible remains of the old ensemble.

The mansion was listed as a Historic Monument by order of 21 June 1927, thereby recognizing its heritage value. In 1963, historian Lucien Musset identified him as in danger, before the house body was finally destroyed two years later. Despite these losses, the site remains a testament to local history and the evolution of seigneurial residences in Lower Normandy.

The remains of the mansion are precisely at 2 Richemont Street, in the village of Cully, which is now part of the municipality of Moulins-en-Bessin. Although the state of conservation is partial, the site retains historical and architectural interest, illustrating the 15th century Norman rural heritage. No information is available on its current accessibility or possible visits.
