Abbey of Melleray with gardens, housing an abbey church with 2 stone recumbents and a wooden statue of Saint Margaret
The abbey was founded in 1142. Of the original buildings, one can still admire the red sandstone porch in the gardens and the church, consecrated in 1183. The cloister buildings, currently occupied by the monks, were rebuilt in the 17th and 18th centuries by the architect Nicolas Portrait. In 1991, a new monastic hostelry was created, which blends harmoniously into the ensemble. In the abbey church, there are two stone recumbents, Bonabes de Rougé and Bishop Henri II of Nantes, and a wooden statue of Saint Marguerite (13th century).
