Saint-Gervais–Saint-Protais Parish Church

Highlight • Beach

The construction of the parish church of Saint-Gervais-Saint-Protais in Savonnière dates back to the 12th century.

It is remarkable for its pointed arched Romanesque door, decorated with fantastic animals such as chimeras and griffins.

Downhill Path to the River

Highlight • Trail

Route it to the river not away. It’s very steep going up in places. Has a nicely bermed right hander.

The Loire by Bike

Highlight • Cycleway

This rural section of the Loire à Vélo is very popular with walkers and cyclists alike. Alternative to the GR 3, it allows you to follow the Cher for a few kilometers between Villandry and Savonnières.
