    The Church of Saint-Louis was built in 1841.
    It contains a listed alabaster bas-relief dating from the 15th century depicting "the adoration of the Magi between two saints."
    The bell tower is listed as a natural heritage site because it is home to greater mouse-eared bats, a very rare breed of bat.
    You'll find a water tap at the entrance to the cemetery near the chapel, behind the church, and a few benches if, like me, you're not only short of water, but also of energy.

    Not much to add to Fred's comment.
    Except that behind the church and just to the left of the cemetery entrance, there is a tiny chapel (where Zoe de Bonchamps, famous for saving the lives of 5,000 Republican soldiers imprisoned by the Chouans in the abbey church, is buried) with a commemorative plaque in honor of Casson's fighters, donated by the Vendée Military Association.
