Origin and history

The Court House in Coudrecieux is a historical monument dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries. This seigneurial mansion, built at the beginning of the sixteenth century, retains a very medieval conception despite its time of construction. It is distinguished by remarkable architectural elements, such as a monumental Renaissance fireplace and original structure, which bear witness to its prestigious past.

The protection of the site was formalized by the registration of the entire house body by order of 26 August 2005. This recognition highlights its heritage significance and conservation status, despite a geographical location that is considered satisfactory (level 7/10). The mansion is located at 11 Rue de la Cour, in the commune of Coudrecieux, Sarthe, within the region Pays de la Loire.

Available sources, including Monumentum, highlight its role as a seigneurial residence, typical of the manor houses of this period. These buildings often served as an administrative and social centre for the surrounding lands, reflecting the power and status of their owners. Although little precise information is available about its occupants or its detailed history, the mansion embodies the architectural evolution between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, characteristic of the noble constructions of the period in Anjou and Maine.
