Brécé: Holiday apartments and holiday homes

Culture

The megalithic side-chamber tomb at Petit Vieux Sou is one of Brécé’s historic monuments. It has been listed as a historic monument since 14 June 1988.

The Notre-Dame de l'Assomption church in Brecé dates from the 15th century and is also listed as a historic monument. Its imposing tower has four pinnacles and a spire. Inside, there is a carved wooden pulpit and three altarpieces classified as historic monuments.

Le Manoir du Châtaignier is a fortified manor house dating from the 14th century, with an impressive turret. The building is privately owned and can be visited in the presence of the owner.

The Écomusée de Brecé showcases rural life in the 19th and 20th centuries through tools, period clothing and photographs; the visitor materials are suitable for children. The Écomusée de Brecé can be visited throughout the year exclusively by prior appointment.

The Motte féodale de l'Ecluse dates from the 11th to the 12th century.

When planning a stay in Brécé, the desire to rent a holiday apartment there may be a key consideration.

Nature

Le Rocher de la Colmont is a striking rock along the Colmont. The lines on its surface resemble a human face; during high water, the rock appears to emerge from the waters of the Colmont.
