À propos de ma région
The Mayenne used to be the bread basket of France. Today it keeps its beauty and charm which attracted us in the first place. With more châteaux and more miles of rivers then any other department, The Mayenne holds many secrets and has its share of famous people both past and present, including the sculptor Debris and ex-finance minister Jean Arthuis, who was made more famous for getting the Mayenne logo, a Pegasus, put onto the rear of one of the Euro coins. Many well known artists, and sports people, including sailors also live here.
The well known cheese Port Salut is made near Chateau Gontier and other well known cheeses such as Chaussée aux Moines and St Paulin are made in Craon.
There are several well known horse race tracks around the region including Laval, Le Lion D’Angers, Sennones to name but a few.
Angers is another well known city, set between the rivers Maine and Loire.
Why not come and discover this wonderful region for yourself, be seduced by it, as my wife and I were. I look forward to meeting you and showing you my part of France.
