The replicas of the Lourdes grotto are reproductions of the Massabielle grotto, the site of the Marian apparitions of Lourdes in 1858, which have been made around the world. Many copies of the site have been made in France, in Europe and then around the world since the beginning with the growing fame of the apparitions and miraculous healings that are said to be due to the water of Lourdes. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9pliques_de_la_grotte_de_Lourdes

A surprising archaeological vestige: the Dolmen de la Pierre Couverte de Mont-Benault. The latter takes its name from the place located nearby but is also called the dolmen of Loncheneau. It is located in the hamlet of Mont-Benault, on the edge of the departmental road 55, going from Baulieu sur Layon to La Faye d'Anjou. According to local legend, this dolmen was built during prehistory on a telluric zone sheltering an underground spring. However, it is difficult to know what its purpose was. Was it a funeral site or a simple shelter? It is made up of five large local stones, each very different. The largest stone is supported by the others, forming a sort of shelter 2 and a half meters wide by 1.40 meters high. The slabs are made of carboniferous schist and puddingstone, except for the chevet slab which is made of phtanite. A flint scraper was reportedly found on site https://www.beaulieu-sur-layon.fr/decouvrir/5285

I'm not a big fan of the Beaulieu forest, always ruts with water, paths that don't lead anywhere (the Komoot maps are not up to date), on the other hand this small section is very nice. You have to cross the ditch to leave the main path.

It is the typical mill-cavier of Anjou! It was built at the end of the 18th century, immediately after the Revolution. It is said that Mr. Blot had buried in the ground a "paillon" (basket for molding the bread dough) of louis d'or marked with the effigy of Louis XVI. After the turmoil, the recovered gold would have been used to build the mill. It ran until 1926. The last miller died in 1956. It gradually fell into disrepair, but its millstones and mechanism, well protected by the hammerhead topped with its crib, remained in good condition. Dominique Lebrun, a young winemaker, who had dreamed of this mill since childhood, bought it and the adjoining house. Thanks to the A.M.A., he obtains the aid that allows him to restore it. This cavier is equipped with plank wings, Berton system The mill also serves as a tasting cellar with sale of Layon wines.

Great hike to do very quickly 🤧
