Maurepas

Historic places are not legion at Maurepas. However, you can not miss the vestiges of the keep, then built by the Malerepast family to defend the land from incessant invasions. 20 meters high and with a gigantic diameter of 17 meters, the dungeon is the only survivor of the castle built in the past. The other imposing monument of history is the church of Saint-Sauveur, born then of a wooden chapel of the ninth century. As you stroll through the Maurepas village, you will be able to admire many houses dating from the 18th and 19th centuries. In the modern part of the city, several monumental works will attract your attention. Among them, La grande maternité elongue, ibis, élan or the battle of goats are some of the life-size works of Gérard Ramon that you can admire.

Athletes will certainly be delighted to learn that the municipality has multiple sports complexes. Among them, the nautical center, the tennis courts or the city stadium, not to mention the gymnasium, will allow you to practice your favorite sport. The stadium offers all kinds of outdoor athletic activities. The park of Bout des Clos allows you to practice football and rugby, but is also equipped with a pitch of archery and a pétanque field.

In mid-October, the garage sale moves to Maurepas. Many exhibitors are expected as many visitors came to hunt old objects from the granaries and dusted for the occasion.

Every Saturday morning, the market opens its doors to Maurepas. Fresh fruits, vegetables full of colors, meats, fish and cheeses invade the stalls before joining your basket. It is in a very friendly atmosphere that you will do your shopping.

In early October, the Strides of Maurepas await the occasional joggers as confirmed for a great race across the city. A sporting event not to be missed.

At the beginning of July, the "Tous à Vélo" day offers cycling activities, as well as races for the whole family. Several courses for cycles and draisiennes for the little ones are at your disposal for this unique event.
