Nouaille-Maupertuis
Nouaille-Maupertuis is located a little way south-east of Poitiers.
It is a sleepy little town with not much to see apart from a large abbey, the Abbey of St Junien - a roman style building constructed in the 12th century.
This abbey was originally a benedictine abbey but later became independent. The abbey is named after St Junien whose remains were brought here.
The abbey was fortified during the time of the Hundred Years War and was surrounded by a high wall with defensive towers.
The marie is housed in an attractive building, the Logis Abbatail, which has an arch over the road.
Next to the abbey in Nouaille-Maupertais a small medieval garden has been planted.
