Châteauneuf

Two monuments mainly make the tourist fame of the village of Châteauneuf. Inscribed in the Historic Monuments, the remains of the old castle, as well as its feudal mound, testifies to the activity of the commune in the Middle Ages, while the small mill, also inscribed, reveals all its ingenuity. Built at the beginning of the 18th century, it still has all its period mechanism.

In the church of Châteauneuf, you can discover one of the oldest bells of Bas-Poitou. Classified as a Historical Monument, it features an inscription in Gothic letters dating from the end of the 15th century. There is also a polychrome wooden tabernacle built in the 16th century.

Several marked hiking trails allow you to appreciate the heritage and flora of Châteauneuf, while the Storks Observatory will offer beautiful views to the most patient hikers. A leisure area, with games for children and the largest, is also offered.

In July, a garage sale is offered to make bargains.

At Christmas, the town welcomes a market with the presence of Santa Claus.
