Loives Farm (14th century)

The Loives Farm, built in the Galaure Valley, boasts an exceptional collection of 14th-century murals, listed as a historical monument in 1961. The main building and its quadrangular tower are the remains of a fortified house around which extended a vast agricultural estate originally belonging to the Knights Hospitaller of St. John of Jerusalem. In the 14th century, the Knights Hospitaller of St. Anthony succeeded the Knights Hospitaller of St. John of Jerusalem. The fortified house retains significant fragments of decoration adorning a large hall (aula) measuring 15 meters by 7 meters, which was divided vertically in the 19th century by the installation of a floor. No fewer than 39 coats of arms are depicted, including the arms of the first four abbots of the Knights Hospitaller of St. Anthony and the principal noble families of the Dauphiné region. A tournament scene between a Count of Savoy and a Dauphin recalls the conflict that ravaged the region between the late 13th and first half of the 14th centuries.
