Château de Bourg Archambault (86390 / Vienne / France)
Un premier édifice du XIIIe siècle, aujourd’hui rasé, a été remplacé par la forteresse actuelle à partir de 1478 grâce à Poncet de Rivière, chambellan de Louis XI. Au milieu du XIXe siècle, le château est acheté par la famille Augier de Crémiers qui fera restaurer l’ensemble e ajouter les trois tours de façade. A l’origine, le château était doté d’une enceinte qui englobait le bourg. Aujourd’hui, il est encore entouré de douves et un châtelet d’entrée (avec quatre tours) équipé à l’origine d’un pont-levis, commande l’entrée au logis.
Le système de défense comporte une herse, des archères canonnières, un chemin de ronde. L’enceinte du XVe siècle est flanquée de six tours dont une fait office de donjon.
Une chapelle est aménagée dans la tour sud-est. Les deux logis primitifs en fond de cour sont reliés entre eux.
La chapelle du XVe siècle est riche d’une ornementation gothique flamboyant et d’un carrelage remarquable en terre cuite émaillée portant les monogrammes de Louis XII et Anne de Bretagne.
