Aubigné-Racan, Archaeological site in Sarthe, France
The commune of Aubigné-Racan extends across 3,203 hectares of land near the Loir River, featuring ancient Roman structures and medieval buildings throughout its territory.
Archaeological excavations conducted in 1977 revealed a complex from the 1st to 3rd centuries, including a theater, two temples, Roman baths, and an aqueduct.
The 11th-century Romanesque church dedicated to Saint Martin de Vertou stands as a central religious monument in the heart of the village.
The town hall remains open Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM, except for Saturday mornings in July and August.
Several prehistoric dolmens dot the landscape around Aubigné-Racan, including the Dolmen de la Pierre and Dolmen du Colombier, marking ancient burial grounds.
