Cornillé-les-Caves

The town is home to several mansions of good quality built between the sixteenth and nineteenth century, like La Perrichère, Fontenailles or La Charpenterie and La Masselière, both classified as Historical Monuments.

Labeled Village of charm, Cornillé-les-Caves can also admire a town hall of the sixteenth century, and a church of the late nineteenth neo-Gothic style.

Do not forget to admire the original "lighthouse" tower, which is part of La Charpenterie, an early 19th century building entirely in tufa with a staircase of almost a hundred steps. It offers a panoramic view of the hills of the Loire.

While walking in the village, you will be able to admire the old troglodyte mansions, restored for some, as well as the cellars dug in the tufa.

Every May 1st, the town offers a relaxing day with hiking, pétanque competition and festive picnic.

The autumn market is held every first Sunday of October with a different theme every year, local craftsmen, as well as musical entertainment.
