Logis de la chabotterie
This Logis offers an astonishingly evocative insight into the gentility of life in the countryside in the years before the Revolution. As the scene of the arrest of General Charette in 1796, La Chabotterie is also an important historic site which marks the end of the War of the Vendée. You will find 10 furnished rooms with sound effects, an enclosed formal garden and a permanent visitor trail about the ‘vendean’ counter-revolution. The country house hosts carriage rides and a tour in period costumes to young children.

Halloween!
About 2000 years ago, the eve of New Year's Day (New Year's Eve) was celebrated on October 31 by the Celts who lived in Scotland, Ireland and Wales. These people did not celebrate the New Year on January 1st as we do today. The New Year began on November 1st.
The Celts believed that ghosts, goblins and witches walked the earth on the evening of October 31st. They were so terrified by all these spirits that they began to disguise themselves in order to avoid being recognised by all the ghosts and witches.
This Anglo-Saxon folk festival, whose main symbol is the pumpkin from the Irish legend of Jack-o'-lantern: whereby it is cut into the shape of a face, then a candle is placed in the centre.
Why not use this celebration as a good excuse to visit the Vendée and sample its local food and participate in the local festivities.
