Discover the simple pleasures of an 18C Bas-Poitou dwelling, named after the estate’s owners from the 12C onwards, the Chabots, and hiding place of leading Royalist François Athanase de Charette de la Contrie, or “Charette”, whose capture on 23 March 1796 in nearby woods marked the end of the Vendée Wars. An introductory film recounts the highlights of Charrette’s career; a marked itinerary takes visitors through the events of this local uprising with models, reconstructions and audio resources.
