Culture

The church in Nalliers is listed as a historic monument; it was listed by decree dated 20 December 1989. Construction phases from the 13th and 15th centuries, as well as later work in 1667 and 1710, are documented for the building.

The Moulin du Champ de la Truie is an early 19th-century windmill in Nalliers. It was built between 1807 and 1811 and was probably the last mill to be built within the municipality. Because it was constructed primarily from reused materials, it was nicknamed the “poor man’s mill”.

L’Ilôt-lès-Vases in Nalliers is one of three known burial sites in southern Vendée.
