The Château de Marson is an old castle built in the 19th century in the town of Rou-Marson. The castle is surrounded by a natural park with majestic trees and a pond. You can admire the architecture of the castle, a listed historic monument, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the countryside. The castle also has a magnificent mosaic pool, created by the famous artist Isidore Odorico. The castle is not open to the public, but you can rent it for weddings or other events.

Saint-Rémy-la-Varenne Priory

Highlight • Religious Site

The church, located in the village of Saint-Rémy-la-Varenne, dates from the first half of the 11th century and was then dependent on the Abbey of Saint-Aubin d'Angers; its rich past is reflected in its architecture.
We enter the vaulted chapel (added to the original building in the 19th century) with the baptismal font. We discover the nave, which is connected to a bay whose 13th century vault rests on older walls. We then enter the choir, the only part of the building with a 12th century vault, where we can admire the ceiling with a pointed barrel vault. Outside the church, we see the Benedictine priory of Saint-Rémy-la-Varenne, a picturesque building founded in 929 that was formerly dependent on the Abbey of Saint-Aubin d'Angers.

This church, open from Easter to All Saints' Day, is part of the network of "Reception churches in Anjou" open to the public.
