These are the last stone and brick calcination kilns in Normandy. They were part of the La Ferrière-aux-Etangs iron mine, which was in operation until 1938.

Very physical

Very nice interior. Maintained by a family.

A magnificent site that improves every year. Spend some time on the surroundings and enjoy the café terrace.

At the heart of the Andaine forest is a 12th century hermitage where the monks of Lonlay Abbey have set up a place of prayer. The lake bears the name of this hermitage. It is an oasis of water in a desert of trees.

You might not think so at first glance, but this little chapel is an important place in Bagnoles-de-l'Orne. Erected in 1856 and destroyed in 1923, it was rebuilt in 1939 to become a popular place to stroll from the spa. Young women wishing to marry came to register their name there to find a companion within the year. In the 20th century, many festivals were also organized there. Today, the place is calmer and lends itself rather to collection.

Classified Historical Monument, it is the last vestige of the castle of the same name. Erected in 1485 and more than 26 meters high, it is also known as the "Bonvouloir lighthouse", its situation having enabled many soldiers lost in the vicinity to find their way. If you see anything other than a simple tower, don't blush. Because its eminently phallic shape is wanted. It is due, according to legend, to the will of Lord Hugues de Tessé to thank the source of Bagnoles for his youth and renewed vigor, as well as his numerous descendants. A legend itself very linked to that of the discovery of the source of Bagnoles. Indeed, Sire Hugues de Tessé had an old horse, Rapide. The latter, old and worn out, was no longer of any use to him but as he was very attached to him, rather than killing him, he chose to abandon him in the forest of Andaines. So what was his surprise to find him dashing a month later. Intrigued, he then gets on it and quickly leads him to the source. He bathes there too, and finds his youth but also his vigor. He thus engendered very numerous descendants.
