Origin and history
Le Logis de la Gannerie is a historic monument located in Cissé, New Aquitaine. This rectangular building, built in the early seventeenth century and modified in the eighteenth century, is organized around a central courtyard. Its architecture reflects the characteristics of the rural mansions of the Louis XIII era, with elements such as a portal decorated with stone pellets and Louis XIII style fireplaces preserved inside.
The entrance to the courtyard is made by a dual-use gate (charrier and pedestrian), topped by a decoration of four stone balls, two of which are inherited by pricks. The main house has a front façade with a span of three bays, crowned by a triangular pediment. Inside, two Louis XIII style stone fireplaces remain, while a bread oven is located in the southeast corner of the courtyard. A perpendicular building once housed the commons.
The house of La Gannerie has been partially protected since 1984: the interior stone staircase, as well as the fireplaces of the living room (ground floor) and the office (first floor) are inscribed in the Historical Monuments. The site is located with an accuracy considered "very satisfactory", at the approximate address of 9 Route de la Gannerie, in the commune of Cissé (code Insee 86076), near Poitiers.
Although the practical information on the visits or services offered is not detailed, the monument illustrates the architectural evolution of the rural dwellings between the 17th and 18th centuries. Its decorated portal and preserved interior elements make it a remarkable example of the local heritage of Vienna, in New Aquitaine.
