The Church of the Immaculate Conception was built at the end of the 19th century. In 1889, the village of Mazeau separated from the commune of St Sigismond. The construction of a church completed the emancipation of the community. Three difficult financing plans followed, in April 1890, June 1892 and February 1893. Restrictions on the initial project of the Fontenay architect Filuzeau were imposed. The plan no longer provided for a possible contribution from the state. The church was therefore financed solely by the Mazéens through a loan and the sale of wood. From 1890, the financing plan ruled out the project of building a presbytery. Work did not begin until the spring of 1897. On January 26, 1898, the archbishop signed the certificate of authenticity of the relic of the Cross kept in the church of Mazeau. On December 8, 1898, for the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, the parish church was blessed by Father Ménard, superior of Saint Joseph of Fontenay-le-Comte, assisted by five other priests.

Long before the discovery of electricity and the associated inventions, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements—which, while useful on the one hand, could also be a threat as a force of nature—for various purposes. A fitting example of the human inventiveness of earlier generations is such a mill: The heavy millstones used to grind grain or press oil, for example, could be powered by water or—as in this case—the wind. Hardly any of them still fulfill their original functions today, but fortunately, some have at least survived as testimonies to ancient times.

Here, the remains of the ramparts of the Lusignan castle, a medieval fortress, built at the end of the 12th century and the beginning of the 13th century. All that remains is the ramparts on the hillsides which offer a magnificent panorama of the meanders of the Mother. To fully enjoy it you have to enter the park and go behind the town hall. A perfect place for a break, the park is generally quite quiet.
