Saint-Laud Collegiate Church

After the first foundations, the building was rebuilt by Hubert de Vendôme and dedicated in 1025 (the lower parts of the nave date from this state). The current building, mainly from the 12th and 13th centuries, has several campaigns: the nave and facade were under construction in the 12th century, the transept in the 13th. In the 14th and 15th centuries, the chapels were added, and the side arrows were rebuilt in the 16th century. Restorations took place in the 19th century.

The Church of Saint-Martin is located in Thorigné-d'Anjou, Pays de la Loire region. A Romanesque church, which dates back to the eleventh century, underwent several renovation campaigns in the twelfth, sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. Its round and pointed steeple rests on a thirteenth century tower, supported by four buttresses. The choir is covered with a beautiful Gothic ‘Plantagenet’ vault. Inside, one can admire a large curved altarpiece of the eighteenth century.

The Romanesque church Notre Dame de Brissarthe was built in the 11th century on a Merovingian site and the remains of a primitive church. It was the first priory of the Abbey St Serge d'Angers and features an impressive nave. In 1730, lightning struck the tower, partially destroying it. The tower and a presbytery are rebuilt on the south arm of the transept. It was at this time that the priory was dissolved and the church became a simple parish church.
