Origin and history
Chandemanche Manor House is a medieval building in the municipality of Morannes-sur-Sarthe-Daumeray, Maine-et-Loire. Built in the second half of the 15th century, this house illustrates the civil architecture of the period, marked by the transition between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Its inscription in historical monuments in 2005 reflects its heritage value and the desire to preserve this testimony of the Angelvin past.
The mansion is now associated with the figure of Pierre Lellouche, former French minister, who owns it. Although the sources do not detail its architectural history or its historical occupants, its status as a protected monument and its precise location (address referenced in the Mérimée base) make it a notable site of the Pays de la Loire. The region, marked at that time by a rural economy and river exchanges via the Sarthe, saw in these mansions symbols of local power and seigneurial management.
The available data, from Wikipedia and Monumentum, highlight its recent listing and territorial anchoring, without mentioning any significant events or major transformations. The accuracy of its location (GPS coordinates and mailing address) facilitates its identification, while its openness to the public or current uses (visits, hosting) are not documented.
