superb greenway along the Mayenne

Magnificent successions of locks along the Mayenne and +++ mention for the troquet along the greenway in Montgiroux!!!

The Catholic Church - Saints Cyr and Julitte d'Argentré dates from Roman times and is dedicated to Saint Cyr and Saint Julitte, two martyrs of the early Christian church. You can admire the fresco in the vault above the main altar, which features geometric patterns from the 12th century. You can also admire the marble altarpieces from the 17th and 18th centuries, the clock from 1875, the paintings and stained glass windows from the 20th century. The church is open to visitors during Heritage Days which take place every year in September.

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.

Cyr and Julitte are figures of saints who have marked Christianity for more than a millennium. Cyr is a 5-year-old child, very mature for his age, who lived in Tarsus, near Antioch (in present-day Turkey), in the 3rd century AD, when the Roman Empire massacred Christians en masse. . During one of those horrific trials where Christians were sentenced to death, Cyr snuck into court running and shouting "I'm a Christian too!". When the judge caught him, he smashed his head against a wall. His mother, Juliette, was also martyred. The horror of their treatment and the heroic hope they demonstrated made them popular as far away as Gaul, especially around Versailles and Nevers. 42 villages bear the name of "Saint-Cyr". see https://nominis.cef.fr/contenus/saint/1329/Saints-Cyr-et-Julitte.html
