From the source
Château de Panloy is a château at Port-d'Envaux, Charente-Maritime, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The recorded building campaigns date from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. It is protected as a monument historique at the second level (inscrit). Details are drawn from the Base Mérimée of the French Ministry of Culture.
Editorial reading
The record dates the first house to 1555–1620, of which the small corner pavilions with their colonnettes are the visible witness, and describes the eighteenth-century restoration, the rebuilding of the right wing after a fire in 1812, and the pedimented north front with its lions and armorial shield added in the nineteenth century. The domain keeps a dovecote dated 1620 with three thousand round terracotta boulins. The 2021 listing covers the domain in its entirety together with the ground of its parcels; the record does not describe the grounds further.
