The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Le fief de Sully est mentionné dès le 11ème siècle. Après en avoir été dépossédée, la famille de Sully se vit restituer son domaine qui fut, par la suite, transmis en héritage et partagé en deux fiefs: celui du Haut-Sully et celui du Bas-Sully. Le porche fut élevé, en 1585, dans un style évoquant la seconde Renaissance française. Adossé à des bâtiments déjà existants, il est orné d'un cartouche identique à celui du colombier et de la chapelle.

The fief of Sully is mentioned as early as the 11th century. After being dispossessed of it, the family of Sully saw their domain restored to them, which was subsequently transmitted as an inheritance and divided into two fiefs: that of Haut-Sully and that of Bas-Sully. The porch was raised, in 1585, in a style evoking the second French Renaissance. Leaning against already existing buildings, it is adorned with a cartouche identical to that of the dovecote and the chapel.
