Tips from the Community

December 2, 2025, Les Halles de La Forêt-Auvray

The town has two old market halls dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. While one of them has been closed for renovation into a community hall, the second has remained open and hosts local events and hikers looking for a pleasant spot to picnic and rest.
