Listed as a Historic Monument, the former priory of Mayanne was built in the 11th century in the heart of the ancient country of Saosnois. This private property has now hosted cultural activities for several decades.
Accessible to public tours, the priory of Mayanne, a former Benedictine castellany, still reveals a Romanesque chapel with an opus spicatum apse from the 11th century, a dwelling-hall, an old common oven, a court auditorium from the 12th century century, as well as a dormitory and a frame from the end of the 15th century.
