Origin and history

The Manoir de Montagnerot is a monument located in the commune of Fontangy, in the region Burgundy-Franche-Comté. The available data do not specify its time of construction or its detailed history, making it a building whose origins remain to be explored. In Burgundy-Franche-Comté, manor houses and fortified houses were often linked to local aristocracy or bourgeois families.

These buildings served as residences, administrative centres or symbols of power in a rural context marked by agriculture and livestock, the dominant activities of the region since the Middle Ages.
