THE BENINA ONDA POND
Not far from Coulonges-sur-l'Autize is a small village that responds to the enigmatic name of "Beugnon". A communal patronymic that comes from the legend of «Benigna Onda», that is, the beneficial wave. These positive vibrations, some thought it found it on the edge of a pond from which the Thouet took its Source. Here are the «good vibes» that were cloche by an environmental protection measure at the initiative of the Country of Gâtine in 2001. Thus, on 3 hectares of rare plant and animal species can live in an area protected from external aggression. On the edge of the country of Mélusine, there are still endangered species such as the Alps, the Martin-fisherman or the arboreal frog. For nature enthusiasts and seasoned observers, children and older people, each will find here memories of campaigns, fishing, walks, a true refuge of peace and tranquillity throughout the year. It should be noted that, in September, an annual celebration is held largely towards eco-citizenship.
