Moulin de Thévalles

The Moulin de Thévalles is a watermill located on the border between Chémeré-le-Roi and Saulges, registered as a historical monument. The mill uses water from a local stream to power its grinding mechanisms and displays the typical construction of milling buildings from this region.

The Moulin de Thévalles developed as part of the rural milling infrastructure in western France and served generations of millers in processing grain. Its preservation as a registered monument reflects the industrial and economic importance of such structures in local history.

The site is located on the border between two municipalities, so visitors should note that it may be accessible from either side. It is advisable to check local road connections before visiting, as exact accessibility may depend on maintenance work.

The Moulin de Thévalles shares its grounds with the neighboring municipality of Saulges, making it an unusual example of a cross-border historical monument. This particularity shows how watermills historically ignored administrative boundaries and followed the course of the stream instead.
