Malay-Le-Petit: Holiday apartments and holiday homes

Malay-le-Petit lies in the Vanne Valley. The small church of Malay-le-Petit was built in 1748. The Saint-Pierre church in Malay-le-Petit houses the antependium “Le Reniement de saint Pierre”.

The antependium “Le Reniement de saint Pierre” is classified as a protected object; this classification was recorded on 20 October 1993. The communal washhouse is said to have been completed in 1888.

For personal planning around the church, pumping station and Vanne in Malay-le-Petit, renting a holiday apartment can be considered as an accommodation option.
