Magné metal drawbridge

Highlight • Bridge

This attractive metal structure bridge dates from 1901. It rises so as to let the boats pass which, in the past, took the river to Marans to transport foodstuffs.

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.

Port d'Arçais

Highlight • Settlement

Starting point for the "wet" part of the Marais poitevin. On the port, we discover the narrow canals, the conches and the flat-bottomed boats. Picturesque.
