Motte féodale
Description
Located in Mortemart, one of France's most beautiful villages and a listed historic monument, the motte is at the crossroads of ancient roads. One of Mortemart's mottes, a symbol of the Drut family's power, bears witness to early feudalism around the year 1000. Abbon Drut, knight and lord of Mortemart, supported the Count of La Marche against the King of France during the siege of Bellac in 995. Nearby was the parish church of Saint-Hilaire, destroyed in the early 19th century.
