In Grison stone

Moutiers is one of the oldest villages in the Perche region, built around a monastery founded in the 6th century and destroyed by the Norman invasions. This is where the village's name comes from, since "Moutiers" means monastery in Old French. On the slopes of the hill, called Mont Harou, stands the church, flanked by a few typical Perche houses that form the old town. To reach it, you'll have to navigate the steep, straight climb of Church Street or take a detour through small streets that soften the steepness of the climb. The church square offers a beautiful view of the surrounding area. Don't forget to walk around the church to admire the gargoyles, which are quite exceptional for such a small church. Restrooms and water are available right next door.

The castle of Senonches. You will find an information point inside.

Beautiful little village, typical of the region.

Be careful, the climb is not easy!!!

At the crossroads of several magical secondary roads, Moutiers-au-Perche offers a lovely heritage stopover during your cycling trips in the Percheron countryside.

Between Longny and Moutiers-au-Perche, the town of Mage extends along a central street lined on both sides with old houses. The village is completed by several hamlets and farms scattered throughout the countryside. Quite eventful, its territory is divided into two very distinct parts: a mountainous and wooded part, and a cultivated part made up of various small fresh and fertile valleys, separated from each other by sandy hillsides whose nature is less suitable for cultivation. . In the heart of the village, from the small square between the old presbytery and the church, the view extends between large trees towards the valley. You have to go down the slope below the church to admire the old Romanesque porch with arches, resting on columns whose capitals worn by time retain their interlacing decoration in places. It is the remains of a first church from the 12th century. The current building was rebuilt on the foundations, probably in the 15th century. Inside, the eye is drawn to the altarpiece in a beautiful classic style, enhanced with colors and gilding. On the right side, matching Saint James, the statue of a bishop wearing the crosier and the miter, reminds us that The Magus is honored to have Saint Germain of Paris as his patron. A side chapel was created in 1646 in which several lords of the neighboring castle of Feillet were buried. The interior decoration is from the 18th century, notably thanks to the attentions of Claude-Adrien Helvétius, farmer general and lord of Voré and Feillet, but also poet and philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment.
