This is not a former crossroads, but the old Le Chatellier railway station. This station was used for loading iron ore from the St Clair mines.

A very nice part of the Vélo Francette between Flers and Domfront. This shady path runs along the Varenne and offers beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. Do not miss the visit of the Forges on your way! Free entry.
