The seigneury of Sapaillé belonged to the abbey of Marmoutiers from a date prior to 1040, the date at which Eudes le Roux, viscount of Châteaudun, confirmed the gift made by his father. The manor is a type of rural construction whose foundations must date from the 13th century, largely rebuilt in the 15th, dependent on the monastery. It is composed of two buildings. A main dwelling which retains an interior roof structure in ship's hull form. A barn with characteristic arrangements, also including a roof structure from the 16th century.
