The church of Thou dates from the 13th century. It has been remodeled many times, particularly in the 19th century with the construction of the bell tower.

Priory-rectory dependent on the abbey of Saint-Satur. The church was rebuilt from the end of the 15th century, starting with the tower forming a bell tower-porch, which can be attributed to a certain Hélias Ruellé, while the coat of arms appearing on the keystones of the nave vault indicate the participation of Guillaume de Ménipeny, abbot of Saint-Satur attested until 1527. The date of 1533 is shown on a keystone. The renovation of the church was probably completed around 1535. The first church was built in the 13th century, of which some remains and perhaps the bell tower-porch remain. The current construction dates mainly from the 16th century and represents one of the rare Renaissance religious buildings in this department. The renovation of the choir and the chevet (capitals) and the construction of the sacristy date from the 19th century. Keystone dated 1533 with the Rochechouart coat of arms.

15th century church renovated in the 19th century. This 19th century restoration consisted of the addition of two chapels to the north and south, which thus form two side aisles. The western bay and the bell tower also date from this restoration.

Romanesque church from the 12th century, remodeled in the 19th century. Of the old building, only the choir remains.

Castle built during the Renaissance by Robert Stuart then Louise de Keroualle, Duchess of Aubigny and Porsmouth. Only the facade and one of the two wings exist today. It is one of the major witnesses to the historical presence of the Scots in this city of character. It can be visited and is worth a look, notably with the ceiling of its large room which is all made of wood, shaped like the hull of an upside-down boat. Good to know: Franco-Scottish festivals take place every year in July.

From this bridge over the Petite Sauldre, you can admire the Château de la Chapelle D'Angillon, also known as Château de Béthune, on the other side of the body of water. It was initially a keep dating from 1050, one of the oldest in the region, then several buildings were added over the centuries to form the castle that we discover today. Two cathedral builders lived there, as well as the princes of Boisbelle. In addition to collections of weapons, embroidery and costumes from the 18th century, you will find a museum dedicated to Alain-Fournier, the author of Grand Meaulnes, and the Royal Albanian Foundation.
