This lake is actually a reservoir resulting from the dam on the Vendée river. There are activities to do like fishing, kayaking and swimming (the water is often silty).

Renaissance castle classified as an historic monument. Free and guided visits, annual closure between January and the end of March. Very nice large park.

Charming little village with a pond to the south, accessible on foot, by a short hiking path, "le chemin des randonneurs".

Viaduct which crosses the Autise on the old railway linking Cholet to Niort. It was put into service in 1868 then gradually decommissioned from 1960 (in 1973 for this portion from Puy-de-Serre to Benet).
