Origin and history
The Ebeaupin estate, mentioned in 1587, is an emblematic example of land development in Brenne. Under the Empire, it symbolizes the ease of its owner and adopts a compact physiognomy typical of the large farms in the region. Four buildings, organized around a central square courtyard, structure the whole, reflecting rational and efficient organization.
The master house, built in 1807, retained its authenticity with its small wood carpentry, shutters, and original lockhouse. The internal distribution, unchanged, reflects the way of life of the time. The protected elements include the finish lane, the fence walls, the dovecote, and various operating buildings, listed as Historic Monuments in 2014.
The ensemble illustrates the evolution of agricultural practices and rural architecture in Brenne, between 18th and 19th centuries. The farmhouse, with its preserved facades and roofs, offers a tangible testimony to the agricultural and social history of the region, marked by a rigorous spatial organization and relative prosperity under the Empire.
