Saint Peter's Church

Highlight • Other

The Chapitrel is the name given to the entrance gate. The period door is in the Renaissance style.
This construction had several functions: It was reserved for catechumens who were not allowed to enter the church and served as a warehouse for farmers who sold at the market on Sunday mornings. The saddleback tower dates from 1545. It is 28 m high. It is square and has four levels. Each floor is separated by an external Roussard belt called a "larmier" which overhangs quite widely, preventing water from running off.
At the top of the roof are two granite crosses, each topped with a copper weather vane representing a crowned dragon's head.

Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul

Highlight • Other

The Church of Saint Pierre and Saint Paul in Ancinnes is in its original part from the 11th and 12th centuries. It was modified in the middle of the 19th century by the addition of a transept which gives it the shape of a Latin cross.

The Organ of the Church of Saint Pierre and Saint Paul in Ancinnes was built by the Damiens brothers in the middle of the 19th century (1863) following the late 18th century. It was the work of Abbé Dubois, priest of Ancinnes from 1843 to 1865.

This organ, built by the brothers Louis and Robert Damiens, organ builders in Gaillon (Eure) remains, today, one of the only survivors in the region in working order.

It is a unique instrument due to its size, which can be heard as the Damiens brothers would have wished. They built 85 instruments, including 3 in Sarthe. The others were abandoned, looted or burned.

Previously the Damiens brothers were wheelwrights, which explains the robustness and solidity of their organs. These organs were built to last.

The Ancinnes Organ has about fifteen stops divided between two manual keyboards and a pedal keyboard of 13 notes and 850 pipes.

The 12th century openings of the nave, alternating limestone and roussard, remain in the state of vestiges being walled up or enlarged in the 19th century. In the 12th/14th century, a door was opened in the gable while the bell tower and the choir rose, which retain pointed arches and trefoil tracery. Boucher built the North chapel in 1854. Chadaigne, from Alençon, repainted the entire interior around 1860 representing the Eucharist and the story of Saint Peter. A staircase tower was built against the bell tower in 1895.

Catholic Church - St-Étienne de Neuchâtel ⛪✨🙏🏻

Highlight • Other

Etienne, named in the Book of the Acts of the Apostles, is one of the first 7 deacons of the nascent Church. Deacon, from the Greek "diakonos" is the title of glory of Jesus: "the Servant". Etienne, like Jesus, did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life to mold a new world. Thus, Stephen inspired many churches to the ends of the earth to renew the way of thinking and seeing work and true authority.

Ruins of Perseigne Abbey

Highlight • Historical Site

The place that gives its name to the surrounding forest. An abbey founded in 1145 by monks from the Abbey of Citeaux in search of silence and isolation. Now, only a ruined section remains, visible through the foliage from the road.
Note that these ruins are located on the grounds of the oldest summer camp still in operation in France.
