Origin and history
The house of Saint-Mars, located in La Chaize-le-Vicomte in the department of Vendée (region Pays de la Loire), is a building built in the 4th quarter of the 16th century. This monument, whose facades and roofs were protected by a registration order under the Historic Monuments on December 1, 1993, illustrates the residential architecture of the late Renaissance in Lower Loire. Its exact address, 4 Le Logis De Saint-Mars, is referenced in the Mérimée base under the code Insee 85046, attached to the arrondissement of La Roche-sur-Yon.
The location of the dwelling is specified as satisfactory (level 6/10) in the available data, with GPS coordinates allowing for approximate identification. Although the source text does not explicitly mention its current use, it is indicated that practical information (visits, rentals, accommodation) may exist without further detail. The building embodies the rural built heritage of the Vendée, a region marked by an agricultural economy and local seigneurial or bourgeois networks.
Available sources (Monumentum, internal data) highlight its status as a Historic Monument, but do not provide the names of the original owners, nor the specific events related to its construction or occupation. The 1993 inscription refers specifically to exterior elements (facades and roofs), suggesting a heritage value related to their authenticity or architectural style. No information is given on any subsequent changes or associated historical characters.
