Description:
The Manor of Salverte consists of two buildings from the 15th and 16th century. At the beginning of the 16th century the Manor was a stately home, belonging to the Seigneur d'Heubecourt, Messire Claude d'Annebault, Marshal of France and Captain of the Royal Hunt. Salverte was well conserved until the French Revolution. After that it was used to agricultural use and suffered from major alterations. New owners bought the Manor in 1974. Their aim was to restore it to its original character and environment to make it a culturally interesting complex. They initiated research, restoration works and the training of a team of craftsmen, thus successfully revitalizing Salverte in a way which is considered exemplary by the Services des Monuments Historiques.
