Saint-Romans Church

Highlight • Other

Saint-Romans-lès-Melle is a French commune, which leads three scallops in the coat of arms. The most important sight is the 12th-century church of Saint-Romans.

It is a charming 12th century church off the village in a cool valley.
Note the south orientation of the apse. The apse is designed in a straight line with three windows without ornamentation. A squat bell tower (15th century) completes the building.

The overview of the northwestern church allows you to see the heart of the building: the western portal crowned by a strip of modillons. The southern part of the door shows an interesting composition: a lion that stretches both on the wall as well
holding on to a basket next to an oval human mask carved on the same basket.

The Talle for Everyone

Highlight • Other

Tiller means a chestnut tree grafted for fruit production; teurtous comes from the local patois and means to everyone, to all.

The dimensions are impressive with a circumference of 16 meters at the base. Experts estimate its age at 600 or even 700 years.

Celles-sur-Belle

Highlight • Other

A small town of character stretching along the Belle River. The famous 12th-century abbey is a cultural hotspot hosting exhibitions and festivals. The town has also been awarded the "Ville en poésie" (Poetry City) label, and you'll certainly have the opportunity to read a few poems during your stroll!

The Ruban Vert greenway follows the old Niort–Ruffec railway line, offering an accessible loop between Melle and Celles-sur-Belle, over approximately 9km of stabilized sand. The path winds through countryside, stone walls, shaded bridges and wooded passages, with a picnic area near the Chaillots pond. Accessible to cyclists, hikers and horse riders.
