Only the vaults in the main nave and the entrance portal from the north (rectory) to the church are neo-gothic. .

The original church from 1282, expanded in the neo-Gothic style in the 17th century, then in 1893. Inside, rich furnishings from the 16th-19th centuries, including: the main altar in the late Baroque style from 1729, a Renaissance triptych from around 1600. Worth watching, available.

Very beautiful and old church. The first mention of it was in 1282. The church burned down twice and was rebuilt each time. The first fire was in 1449. The second time the Church was burnt down during the Thirty Years' War and by 1671 it was completely restored again.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
