Losmonerie Castle was built around 1540 in the spirit of a masion in the fields of the Renaissance (tower, chapel, gallery). Around 1750 the Taxandier de Losmonerie will redecorate the rooms with all the refinement of the eighteenth century. The tapestries (Aubusson) and furniture have remained in place since this period and are classified as Historical Monuments.
