Saint-Martin Priory
Located on the Surville hill above the town, it was founded in 908 by the Benedictines of Saint-Lomer de Blois. It has undergone numerous architectural modifications over the centuries.
It became a farm which was abandoned in the 1960s. Excavations were undertaken and revealed remains from the 11th and 13th centuries in the old chapel, in particular sarcophagi, some of which were reused in the foothills.
