Another beautiful site on the Sèvre Nantaise, with the unusual feature this time: it's not only at the crossroads of three departments (LA, Vendée, and M&L), a rather common occurrence, but also of three former provinces: Brittany, Poitou, and Anjou. The crossroads is formed by the Sèvre on one side and its tributary, the Bon Débit, on the other. The inn of the same name looks very nice; in any case, the setting is splendid.

On the site of an old ordinary mill, dilapidated since the end of the 16th century, Father Deshayes, superior of the Montfortian communities, had a new mill built, reserved for the exclusive use of religious people. He then specifies that the establishment is intended to produce: “4,000 pounds of bread per week, of which 700 are distributed to the poor, and this usually”. This is not done without reluctance on the part of neighboring users, using the wash houses, watering troughs and fisheries, as well as the hydraulic power of the mills upstream. Originally, the mill had a paddle wheel, operating three pairs of millstones. The belfry is used to transmit the movement of the wheel to the millstones rotating thanks to the pit wheel and the fly wheels. https://www.saintlaurentsursevre.fr/decouvert/presentation/patrimoines/patrimoine-histoire/moulin-de-la-sagesse/

The wars of Vendée

Long before the discovery of electricity and the associated inventions, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements - which on the one hand were useful, but on the other hand could also be a threat as a force of nature - for various purposes. A suitable example of the human ingenuity of previous generations is such a mill: the heavy millstones with which, for example, grain was ground into grain or oil was pressed, could be powered with the help of water or - as here on the Mont des Alouettes - the wind , whose strength the covered wings have absorbed. Hardly any of them still fulfill their original functions today, but fortunately some have at least been preserved as evidence of the old days.

A total of eight windmills were built on this site, two of which survive, one of which is still in operation. A chapel was also built there in 1828, but it is interesting to note that it was not completed and inaugurated until 1968.

The thick walls and 18 towers clinging tightly to the granite spur protected the fortress from enemy attacks to this day. In the castle built in the 12th century, the weapons of war are still ready for battle, at that time there were 16 medieval machines, including the largest trebuchet (the trebuchet is a seesaw with a power and load arm) in France with a firing height of over 160 meters!

Former mill, once operated by several generations of potters, with a now private footbridge that served as a link between La Séguinière and La Romagne, and now a natural area on the banks of the Moine popular for several sporting activities. First of all, hiking, it is in particular the favorite place for the "Randonnée du Bouchot" organized each year for the Séguinière blood sausage festival (!!!). It is also a popular place for climbing with the presence of a cliff offering a small site of about fifteen routes with a height ranging from 10 to 20 m and a level of difficulty of 4 to 6b. For cyclists, the place gives the opportunity of a beautiful hill going up from the river towards the Séguinière. The passage of the ford can sometimes be blocked in the event of flooding of the river, but that passes largely in the beautiful days.
