An charming
village on the River Sevre-Nantais on the eastern boundary of the Vendee
and Deux Sevre some 9 kilometers from Pouzages. The two picturesque bridges that
cross the river are said to be Gallo-Roman but in fact were built in the XV111
century in the Gallo-Roman style and on an old road that was used in roman
times.
The twelve
century church of St.Martins has some XV century Frescos on the south wall of
the nave, these portray in humorous style the 7 deadly sins in the form of
animals and colourful clothed people. A commentary in French discribes the
paintings.
