Tips from the Community

Fred Urrutia
September 2, 2025, Château de Beaurepaire

Dating from the 15th century, this manor house in VieuxBeaurepaire, listed as a Historic Monument, is distinguished by successive constructions integrated into older buildings. It is particularly famous for having sheltered Abbot Pierre Proust during the Vendée Wars, who took refuge there to escape deportation and continue to keep the parish registers of Terves.

The old Clécé train station marks a stop on the old railway line converted into a greenway. The disused building, with its simple lines and exposed timbers, is a perfect resting spot for a break.

Body of water intended for fishing and placed on the route of the Thouet cycle route. Many picnic tables, games for children and a snack.

Charming little village with a pond to the south, accessible on foot, by a short hiking path, "le chemin des randonneurs".
