Visit of the Mont des Alouettes, one of the mythical places of the Vendée history in Les Herbiers.
At 3 km from Les Herbiers, in the direction of Cholet, the Alouettes mount culminates at 231 m of altitude. This name would come from a base camp of a Roman legion. It is one of the mythical places of the Vendean history: the Vendean armies used to gather here. The mills were used as optical telegraphs: during the Vendée wars (1793-1794), depending on the position of the wings, they gave signals to the Vendean insurgents on the movements of the enemy. It reveals a grandiose panorama from the hills of Pouzauges to the towers of the cathedral of Nantes.

Site un peu décevant quand on le découvre. Vue élevée certes, mais aucun rappel vendéen historique ... dommage.
