From the source
Château de La Chapelle-Bertrand is a château at La Chapelle-Bertrand, Deux-Sèvres, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The recorded building campaigns date from the 15th and 20th centuries. It is protected as a monument historique at the higher of the two levels (classé). Details are drawn from the Base Mérimée of the French Ministry of Culture.
Editorial reading
The record describes a walled court to the south, entered through a large square tower, a round tower on the south-east, farm dependencies to the west and two wings of outbuildings enclosing a square court to the north, one of them contemporary with the house and once holding stables and the bakehouse. Other dependencies, including a pigsty of the later nineteenth century, and a garden complete the domain. The château was classified in 1991; the built parts and ground of the enclosure, the outbuildings and the garden were listed in 2004. The record does not describe the garden itself.
