This unmissable site is the only one in Mayenne to be classified as one of France's Most Beautiful Villages. On the border between Sarthe and Mayenne, the medieval town of Sainte-Suzanne overlooks the River Erve.

Places to visit include the keep, the castle, the charming 14th-century church, the cobbled streets, the old houses and the museum, all of which bear witness to its rich historical past.
