Small Church of Saint-Généroux (10th century)

Highlight • Religious Site

The church of Saint-Généroux is a historical and cultural site which is worth a visit during a walk in Deux-Sèvres. Dating from the 10th century, it is considered one of the oldest churches in France and features remarkable pre-Romanesque architecture. You can admire its sculpted capitals, its three-bay triumphal arch and its cul-de-four apse. The church is located on the banks of the Thouet, a peaceful river which offers a pleasant natural setting for a walk. You can also enjoy the 13th century Romanesque bridge which spans the river and offers a beautiful view of the church and the surrounding landscape.

Montguimier Mill

Highlight • Monument

The Moulin de Montguimier is a 12th century mill that belonged to the monks of Saint-Jouin-de-Marnes. You can start your hike from the parking lot of the Saint-Généroux church, a remarkable example of Romanesque art. Cross the bridge over the Thouet and follow the yellow markings. You will pass an old lime kiln and enjoy the view of the valley and hills. You can also picnic by the river and relax in the shade of the walnut trees.
