Very pleasant along the Vendée river

Renaissance castle classified as an historic monument. Free and guided visits, annual closure between January and the end of March. Very nice large park.

Charming little village with a pond to the south, accessible on foot, by a short hiking path, "le chemin des randonneurs".

They build a small bridge for the river. Very good picnic location

The fate of the village of Faymoreau changed in 1827 when a modest clog maker discovered a seam of coal while digging a well. This discovery leads, two kilometers from the original village, the construction and then the development of a small mining town with its settlements, its management building (now the mining hotel, and now a restaurant), its chapel, its school, its allotment gardens, etc. People from here and elsewhere come to settle there to work in the mine. The exploitation of the deposit stops in 1958. The traces of this past remain with in particular the chapel of the Minors which was restored and redecorated with magnificent stained glass windows designed by the artist Carmelo Zagari.
