((Private property)) The current château was built in 1758 according to the plans of Antoine Forestier, known as the Younger; the Saint Peter's Chapel, located to the north, dates from 1608. It is mentioned in François-René de Chateaubriand's *Memoirs from Beyond the Grave* (Part One, Book V). It has been listed as a historical monument since July 22, 2004 [(Source: Wikipedia)] The Battle of Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier (July 28, 1488) took place on the heath now known as "the Heath of the Meeting." It pitted the Bretons against the French; the latter were victorious. Jean II de la Celle (1450-1507), Lord of La Sécardaie, participated in the battle, and two cannonballs from this battle are preserved at the Château de la Sécardaie: the Breton cannonball (the larger one) is made of granite; The French cannonball (the heaviest) is made of iron.

The Église Saint-Léonard was built in the 12th century and acquired its present form in the flamboyant Gothic style in the 15th and 16th centuries. During the French Revolution, the church was deprived of its sacred function, but in the 19th century, under architects such as Aristide Tourneux, it underwent extensive renovations, including a new main façade with a large rose window. Inside, 19th-century stained-glass windows depicting episodes from the life of Saint Léonard can be seen.
