very beautiful castle, on the edge of the departmental road.

The old fortress of Malicorne which preceded this castle was founded in the 11th century. It fell into English hands for just over 50 years in the 14th and 15th centuries, but was eventually recaptured. The castle you see now was built in the 18th century on the ruins of the old building.

The water (from the Sarthe) and the wood (from the Bois de l'Hommeau) give this particular site a cheerful character.

The Perrine de Cry mansion is an interesting site. It was badly damaged and rebuilt after the Hundred Years War, but was seized during the revolution.

The mill dates from the 10th century. The lords of Champagne allowed the inhabitants of the parish to use the mill for a fee. In the 19th century, three wheels were in service. The smallest was used to grind oak or chestnut bark to tan hides. The other two wheels were used to produce flour. The mill has been beautifully restored over the past decade.

Malicorne-sur-Sarthe is ideal for a break with its river stopover, its mill and its earthenware and ceramics museum. Settle down and enjoy this commune classified as a City and Craftsmanship.
