Saint-Michel-de-Montjoie

Highlight • Settlement

Very sparsely populated, this town nevertheless has several attractions, starting with its pretty belvedere from the church. Further north is also the charming little chapel of Nouettes.

But the emblematic place of the village is most certainly the park-museum of granite. In the first half of the 20th century, a hundred quarries were exploited on the municipal territory. No wonder Saint-Michel-de-Montjoie was chosen to host this museum which traces the history of the region's granite, Bleu de Vire.

The Pierre Zure Stream

Highlight • River

For 1 km, you will be immersed in nature and follow this small stream called Pierre Zure. This stream, which flows from north to south, joins the Sée. Bucolic and rejuvenating!

Pierre Zure stream

Highlight • River

The Pierre Zure is a stream which flows from north to south, joining the Sée at approximately the same level as the Bouanne.
It has its source at Saint-Michel-de-Montjoie, serves as a limit between Lingeard and Perriers-en-Beauficel, following a deep valley before flowing into the Sée, on its right bank, at Chérencé-le-Roussel.

Saint-Michel-de-Montjoie remains the last center of extraction of a granite known as “Bleu de Vire”. Discover this history, whose heyday dates back to the beginning of the 20th century, thanks to a walk and a family trail in a pleasant park-museum in the heart of the town classified as a "heritage village". Free access to the park-museum.
