The lordship of Alluyes was, in the Middle Ages, the first of the five baronies of Perche-Gouêt. The keep dates from the 12th century. Between the fortified gate and the dungeon rises the old Saint-Nicolas chapel ending in a semi-circular apse. It was originally lit by four round arched windows. A wide cart door was cut into the west wall when the chapel was converted into a barn. The framework was redone at the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 16th century. The chapel received a shingled vault on which paintings were executed.
