Hiking

Beaupréau Castle is a medieval fortress which overlooks the Evre River. You can explore the castle grounds and admire the architecture of the 15th century building, which hosted King Charles IX in 1565. You can also admire the surrounding countryside and the old town of Beaupréau from the castle walls. The castle park is open free to the public, allowing you to relax and picnic in the shade of the trees. Beaupréau Castle is an ideal destination for a day trip rich in history and nature.

Many years after serving as a location for powder factories and the printing of banknotes by the Vendeans during the Vendée wars, the castle became a maternity hospital run by the nuns. It was bought by a real estate company which turned it into an apartment building.
