Grez-Neuville is a charming village on the banks of the Mayenne. The port has been a base for river tourism in Anjou since the 80s, and you can watch the boats coming and going on the river.

It is the castle which gave its name to the town. Only the fortifications remain. These ramparts are more than a thousand years old and were built in the 11th century.
