The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Petite gloriette comme il s'en construisait aux environs immédiats de Tours au 18e siècle. A l'origine, la propriété faisait partie d'un grand ensemble prieural, établi au début du 12e siècle, et dispersé en 1770. Sans doute servait-elle de dépendance, car le rez-de-chaussée est surmonté d'un vaste grenier à fourrage et à blé.

History
Small garden pavilion like those being built in the immediate vicinity of Tours in the 18th century. Originally, the property was part of a large prioral complex, established in the early 12th century, and dispersed in 1770. No doubt it served as a dependent, for the ground floor is surmounted by a vast granary for hay and grain.
