Town Presentation

Nogent-le-Bernard The name comes from the Latin "novus Bernardi people", that is to say, "the new people of Bernard", name of the first lords of La Ferte which depended the parish.

The town now attracts many hikers through trails but also through a story and an exceptional heritage.


Sightseeing

The church Saint Jouin de Marnes: listed building, dating from the 11th and 12th centuries. The building was subsequently enlarged in the 17th and 18th centuries when it was fortified (presence of a murderous swing). Guests enter through a beautiful Romanesque door. Inside, one can admire the many statues in terracotta including that of St Jouin, protector of the church. We also note the presence of an apparent wooden roof, typical of local architecture.

The menhir Courtevrais: Top of 5.40 meters and 4 meters wide, this megalithic monument (listed building) shows a very ancient human presence. Around the menhir, there are many stone slabs, which is to place the name "field of stones". The menhir is located on private property.

Castle High Eclair: Recently restored by the community of 301 Maine municipalities, it dates from the late 16th and was rebuilt in the nineteenth. It was the scene of royal activities. The girls Sallet, lord of the place were even regarded as "the heroes and the Amazons of ancient Chouannerie. The castle was then sold and has long served as an elementary school (hence the inscription on the pediment). Near the castle, there is a dovecote dating from 1611 with a guardhouse and a floor with 800 putlogs.

Visit the village.

The town has many hiking trails.
