Origin and history

The medieval farm of Bois Richeux, located on the town of Pierres, represents a rural heritage whose exact period of construction remains undetermined. This type of monument illustrates the agricultural and domestic organization of the medieval countryside, although its precise history is not documented in the available sources. Medieval farms like Rich Wood played a central role in the local economy, combining habitats, storage spaces and arable land.

In the Centre-Val de Loire, a region marked by a strong agricultural tradition from the Middle Ages, these structures reflected peasant life, organized around seasons, harvests and exchanges with lords or neighbouring towns. Their architecture, often made of local materials, adapted to the resources and needs of communities.
