La Prévière

La Prévière covers 17.24 square kilometers of rolling rural countryside, crossed by the Verzée river forming its northeastern boundary, with elevations ranging from 47 to 100 meters above sea level in the western French countryside.

Originally an independent commune until 2016, La Prévière maintained its local administration within the Segré arrondissement and Pouancé canton before becoming a delegated commune of Ombrée d'Anjou during the administrative territorial reorganization.

Residents known as Eperviers and Epervières preserve French rural traditions through local festivities, community events, and the maintenance of traditional stone architecture characteristic of the Pays de la Loire region's cultural heritage.

The town hall located at Place de l'Église handles administrative procedures Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, while the Pouancé gendarmerie provides local security services for this commune with postal code 49420.

La Prévière maintains one of the lowest population densities in Maine-et-Loire with only 32 inhabitants per square kilometer, creating a preserved rural environment where traditional agricultural activities still dominate the local economic landscape.
