A place of pilgrimage since the apparition of the Virgin to Saint Maurille, the old chapel has been replaced by a sanctuary of majestic proportions built between 1890 and 1913. The 40-meter-high square tower which marks the surrounding landscape was built after the first World War. Pilgrims always come there to venerate Notre-Dame l'Angevine. There are also several evocations of the Vendée past, with in particular the stained glass window of the "field of the Martyrs".

Very beautiful church, whose size and architectural style clash with the few houses that surround it. The place has been the object of pilgrimage since an apparition of the Virgin in ancient times. The church, in its current form, dates from the end of the 19th century.
