A major site of the Vendée wars, it is a martyred town where 564 inhabitants, women, old people and children, were massacred on February 28, 1794 by the Republican troops of General Turreau. A scar that has not closed for a certain number of Lucquois who still put flowers on the tomb of Abbé Voyneau, the priest of the time. The stained glass windows of Saint-Pierre church tell of these events. Others took place a few kilometers from Les Lucs. Indeed, it was at the Chateau de la Chabotterie, in Saint-Sulpice-le-Verdon, that Charette, the Vendéen leader, was arrested in 1796 before being executed in Nantes. With the death of Charette, the Vendée wars came to an end.
