Fort des Salles is one of the most little-known castles in Sarthe. Dating from the Middle Ages, it was probably built during the reign of Henry II Plantagenet. The castle, which is very rarely visited, is private and is under rehabilitation. Right next door, you will find a pretty little body of water and a municipal campsite.

Now privately owned and impossible to visit, this beautiful chateau was first non-existent in the 1100s. It was purchased by the Sarcé family in 1822 and remained in the family until the last heir died in 1985 and was bought by a wealthy American.

This small island has a lot to offer: green spaces to stroll and relax, an art center and a working mill.
