There has been a church on this site since the 12th century, but the basilica you see in front of you was built in 1900. From the streets of Mayenne the church dominates and is very impressive.

This castle was built in the 10th century. Half a century later, the castle became a garrison castle. 400 years later, it served as a prison in the 18th century. In the middle of town, the castle gardens are worth wandering through for a quiet moment.

This superb castle deserves to be discovered. To take a picture or simply to admire its towers and its splendour. In its time, it was also the subject of one or two postcards.

Built on the site of a former Carolingian residence of the 10th century, the castle, which dominates the old town, is the emblematic monument of Mayenne. Most of the visible elements date from the 13th century, in particular the dwelling and the circular keep. It houses the city museum, which exhibits objects from daily life in the Middle Ages. Medieval board games, including chess pieces and a backgammon board, are among the best-preserved pieces in the world.

This modest town in Mayenne has the particularity of having been an important Gallo-Roman city, formerly called Noviodunum, and which, according to experts, covered twenty-five hectares in the 1st century AD. Witness the remains of the temple, the thermal baths, the theater and the fortress, scattered in several places in the town. The thermal baths, visible under the current church, the stepped amphitheater, built around 80 AD and the ruins of the temple at the exit of the town, are freely accessible. The fortress stands on the edge of the Departmental Archaeological Museum.

In the 12th century, the seigneury of Grazay was a vassal fief of the barony of Mayenne and belonged to the Courceriers. The castle appears to be a pleasure abode rather than a defensive fortress. The house consists of a hexagonal tower on the facade dated 1577, a covered wooden gallery between the tower and the pavilion and to the north a chapel with a beautiful dome roof. He kept the seigneury of the parish until the end of the 18th century in the Bazogers family. Château de la Cour 53440 Grazay, private property, cannot be visited, visible from the road to Marcillé la Ville. Source: http://www.chateau-fort-manoir-chateau.eu/
