Moulin de la Pinsonniere
Highlight • Historical Site
It was built at the end of the 18th century, immediately after the Revolution. It is said that Mr. Blot had buried in the ground a "paillon" (basket for molding the bread dough) of louis d'or marked with the effigy of Louis XVI. After the turmoil, the recovered gold would have been used to build the mill. It ran until 1926. The last miller died in 1956. It gradually fell into disrepair, but its millstones and mechanism, well protected by the hammerhead topped with its crib, remained in good condition.
Dominique Lebrun, a young winemaker, who had dreamed of this mill since childhood, bought it and the adjoining house. Thanks to the A.M.A., he obtains the aid that allows him to restore it. This cavier is equipped with plank wings, Berton system
The mill also serves as a tasting cellar with sale of Layon wines.

Pont Barré
Highlight • Bridge
This communication channel was a strategic place during the Vendée wars, and will be the scene of several confrontations in the 18th century, including the battle of Pont-Barré or Combat de Beaulieu. In September 1793, the Republican troops occupied the heights dominating the Barré bridge, on the Layon, and regained control of the passage despite the royalist defense.
