Belle-Poule Lock

Highlight • Structure

In 1399, the chaussée de Belle-Poule ensured the operation of a mill located on the right bank of the Mayenne. In 1834, a second mill was built on the left bank. The canalization of the Mayenne led to their destruction. A lock and new dam project was drawn up in 1847 by engineer Leblanc and then taken up in 1850 by engineer E. Caillaux. The works were completed in 1853

Die Kanalisierung der Mayenne führte zu ihrer Zerstörung. Ein Schleusen- und neues Dammprojekt wurde 1847 von Ingenieur Leblanc entworfen und 1850 von Ingenieur E. Cailaux in Angriff genommen. Die Arbeiten wurden 1853 abgeschlossen.

Port Lake

Highlight • Other

This lake on the banks of the Mayenne is a fantastic place for hiking. You will find hiking trails all around the lake itself and for more interest you can look for the ardens where you will find a vegetable patch.
