Abbaye de Chaloché, Romanesque abbey in Jarzé Villages, France.

The stone walls and semi-circular arches of Abbaye de Chaloché display the architectural features of a 12th-century religious complex in Maine-et-Loire.

Built in 1129, this monastic establishment underwent substantial modifications during the 17th century, reflecting the changes in religious practices over time.

The facades and roofs of the abbey received official protection status as a historical monument through a governmental decree in March 1973.

Located at Chemin des Grandes Varennes in Jarzé Villages, visitors should note that the abbey remains under private ownership with restricted access.

The abbey grounds contain preserved elements of the original medieval monastery, including architectural features from both the 12th and 17th centuries.
