The manor, which was first mentioned in 1540, has changed hands a number of times. The two-storey Early-Classicist main building, established in the 1770-80s, was restored in the 1970s (now privately owned). A couple of kilometres away there is the family cemetery of the estate owners with a chapel.

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
