Origin and history
Villechien Manor House is a building built in the middle of the 16th century, located in the city of Angers, Maine-et-Loire. This monument, classified among the Historical Monuments, illustrates the civil architecture of the Renaissance in the region of the Pays de la Loire. Its facades and roofs, listed in the additional inventory by order of 10 February 1987, testify to its heritage importance.
The location of the manor, at 26 Rue de Villechien, is attested by data from the Merimée database and GPS coordinates. Although the accuracy of this location is considered satisfactory a priori (note of 6/10), it clearly identifies its anchoring in the urban fabric of Angers. No information is available on its current use (visits, rentals, accommodation) or on its potential historic owners.
Available sources, including Monumentum and internal data, confirm its status as a protected monument, but do not provide details of its social history, its occupants, or its precise role in the 16th century Angelian community. The absence of references to characters or events related to the mansion limits the knowledge of its specific historical context.
