There has been a church on this site since the 12th century, but the basilica you see in front of you was built in 1900. From the streets of Mayenne the church dominates and is very impressive.

This castle was built in the 10th century. Half a century later, the castle became a garrison castle. 400 years later, it served as a prison in the 18th century. In the middle of town, the castle gardens are worth wandering through for a quiet moment.

Built on the site of a former Carolingian residence of the 10th century, the castle, which dominates the old town, is the emblematic monument of Mayenne. Most of the visible elements date from the 13th century, in particular the dwelling and the circular keep. It houses the city museum, which exhibits objects from daily life in the Middle Ages. Medieval board games, including chess pieces and a backgammon board, are among the best-preserved pieces in the world.
