THE LAU MANOR

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

In the centre of the village of Allemans, privileged testimony of a rich local history, the Lau Manor has been altered over time. Without the support the Mayor, the association Patrimoine Allemansois fought to rehabilitate the manor and to make it a living place of exhibitions and cultural animations, in the heart of the community life. For two years, an association has been created to rehabilitate this remarkable building which, with its magnificent octagonal tower with a spiral staircase, its renaissance room with a monumental fireplace and window cushions, all overlooking a pleasant park that includes a stable, a cart and a bread oven, waiting for a little goodwill and a local furore to revive.
