MANOIR DE CLAIREFONTAINE

A friendly visit full of humour and surprises in one of the most authentic medieval manor houses in Anjou. Welcome to Clairefontaine Manor.

Classified as a Historic Monument and the result of the conversion of a wine-growing monastic barn dating from the 12th, 13th and 14th centuries, Clairefontaine Manor (15th century) invites you to recharge your batteries in an enchanting setting. Take a 1-hour guided tour (in costume for children) of the medieval interior, with its exceptional cloisonné staircase and inverted ship's hull. Explore the rooms and discover antique furniture, tapestries and contemporary art. Wander freely in the 50-hectare park with its flower gardens, vegetable patch, domestic animals and ponds. Put on your hiking boots (2 km) to inspect every nook and cranny of the park and solve the enigmatic disappearance of the painter J. Delacroix. An investigation full of twists and turns, combined with a treasure hunt for children. Find out more about the events and dramatised tours on the manor's website. Disabled parking, picnic area.
