An imposing 15th century medieval castle, which withstood the Hundred Years' War and the Wars of Religion, as well as the Revolution, it was saved from ruin by its current owner in 1982. This castle was the setting for George Sand's novel "The Miller of Angibault" under the name of Château de Blanchemont.

A truly impressive complex. Very well preserved and restored. You can visit the castle for a small fee. It is definitely worth it. Just for the view from the top floor

A small pond in the forest. There is a lot of vegetation, so swimming can be complicated. It's a great place for a picnic, you can find shade on the shore.

Nice castle, which you can visit on your own with a description in the language of your choice. A bit bizarre because you come across all kinds of things, but definitely worth it. Entrance fee adult: 7 euros p.p. There are a number of walking routes near the church: 4, 7, 14, 20 km long. The one from 14 is a beautiful route around the village.

Sarzay Castle is a medieval building dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries. Its lush, natural setting is simply magnificent!

Sarzay fortress was built in the 14th century. It originally included the stately home, the chapel, 38 defense towers, 2 perimeter walls covering 5 hectares and 3 drawbridges. Having survived the Hundred Years War, it is now one of the most photographed monuments in the region.
