Church built in the first half of the 16th century, then raised in 1752. It is formed of a nave preceded by a narthex and adjoining two chapels forming a false transept. The 16th century door is formed of a low arch, adjoining smooth pilasters which support the lintel, above which a triangular pediment stands out from the wall. The church is decorated with murals in the apse and the side chapels, dating from the 16th and 17th centuries. In the choir, the paintings date back to the 19th century. Large flamboyant Gothic windows illuminate the building and retain stained glass windows.

The Huisne is a river in central France, flowing in the regions of Normandy, Centre-Val de Loire and Pays de la Loire. It rises in the municipality of La Perrière, in the Perche Regional Nature Park, initially drains to the northeast, later to the southeast, finally turns to the southwest near Condé-sur-Huisne and, after around 165[2] kilometres, flows into the Sarthe in Le Mans as a left tributary.

Very beautiful start to the route with an arrival at this magnificent mill

This 16th century church is distinguished by its two naves of different inspiration. The north nave is Romanesque while the south nave is Renaissance style.

Originally built in the 11th century, the church only had its walls in 1766. It was at this time that it was rebuilt with its bell tower.

Today, the Villeray estate hosts a restaurant, a hotel and a spa. From the local bridge, the view of the Huisne passing by the old mill could not be more charming.

Thiron-Gardais Abbey was the mother abbey of one of the largest monastic orders of the Middle Ages, the Order of Tiron. There is a picnic area and Wi-Fi available inside. The gardens are impressive and highly recommended.

In 1862, at a time when Napoleon III found himself facing anticlerical opposition, the bishop of Chartres sought to bring together Catholics certainly in his cathedral but also in the countryside. He has in his possession a relic of Saint James and decides to offer it to the Saint-Jacques church in Montlandon. Where does he get it from? Is it one of the two relics existing in Chartres before the Revolution, one attested at the Saint-André church in the 15th century, the other at the Hôtel-Dieu in the following century? The mystery remains. The same year, the parish priest, Father Joly, wrote a 28-page brochure entitled Historical notice on Saint James the Greater, his origin, his vocation, his apostolate, his death, his translation and his miracles followed by some reflections on the founding of a pilgrimage to Montlandon, printed in Chartres by the printer Garnier, which he sold for the benefit of his church, with the approval of his bishop. This attempt to found a pilgrimage was unsuccessful. The reliquary is still at the back of the church but could do with some serious cleaning. The church of Montlandon could today once again become a small local sanctuary, within walking distance of former pilgrims from Compostela or of those who will never go as far as Galicia.
