Belle demeure sous le soleil d'hiver

Belle demeure sous le soleil d'hiver
Le manoir de l'Isle, logis du 15ème s. porta alors bien son nom : il fut ceint de douves remplies d'eau.

Built in the 15th C.(altered in the 17th), it was surrounded by a moat - a part of which can be always seen today. The original entrance to the château was along the 800 m pathway lined with beech trees on both sides.
The 16th C. St Anne's chapel (1st PiP) with its bell from 1646 underwent changes in the 17th C. There is a small haxgonal steeple and the clock still has the original mechanism and is always working!
