Poix Castles

Before 1790, the town of Poix had two castles built by the former lords of Poix; but the greatest was that which was built close to the current church. This castle was defended by several towers and was enclosed by walls; Its basic roof has been destroyed since 1800. Its site, above the cemetery, is covered today with woods; but part of the underground of this castle still exists today.

Manor or Sirerie of Poix

The Poix sirery was very-old and considerable. It had high, medium and low justice, and raised only for the king of France, because of his bailiwick of Amiens. The lands of Poix raised eighteen villages and hamlets with nine fiefs also other Manors and many fiefs including some in sub-fiefs. The income of this holding was nevertheless only 12,000 pounds in 1700, was not waited until several of his mobilities had passed in all or partly to the vidames of Picquigny.

The Poix lords, while concerned with king of France, were to pay to him homage for each new lord, and were to provide consent and enumeration to each change of sovereign.
