Origin and history
The Manor House of Pantigné, located in Auvers-le-Hamon in the Sarthe, is an emblematic building of the 15th and 16th centuries. Its house body, built from the 15th century, reflects the typical architecture of this period, with a contemporary hors-œuvre staircase. The 16th century chimneys and 18th century windows illustrate the successive stylistic evolutions of the building.
The mansion was listed as a historic monument on 26 January 1989, recognizing its heritage value. The site also includes agricultural parts redesigned in the 19th century, reflecting its adaptation to functional needs over the centuries. The exact address, 186 Le Tertre, and its Insee code (72016) confirm its anchoring in the Sarthois territory.
Available sources, including Wikipedia and Monumentum, highlight the diversity of protected elements, such as the house and its staircase, as well as fireplaces and windows. These architectural details provide an overview of the construction techniques and aesthetic tastes of the eras concerned. The mansion remains a representative example of the rural heritage of the Niger, marked by continuous transformations since the Middle Ages.
