Saint-Généroux


A legend tells, that in the 6th century a monk named Generosus (now "Saint-Généroux"), chose to retire here to a hermit life.
He died in 521, when already a small community existed. His relics were venerated inside a church, that later was the center of a priory, making it to a stopover for the pilgrims heading to Saint-Jouin-de-Marnes.
Bridges like this one, crossing the river Thouet, were often erected for the pilgrims and (of course) merchants. The medieval bridge in Saint-Généroux is about 120 meters long - and runs parallel to the modern bridge.
