Nature and Trails

The Trézence rises in Loulay and runs through the town. The Loulay circular route via l’Isle and the Boutonne is signposted in both directions for VTC, mountain biking and hiking. It leads to the Bois des grandes Chênaies and onwards to La Fromagère, offering beautiful views of the countryside.

Culture and History

Northeast of today’s Sainte-Trinité Church in Loulay stood a first Romanesque church dating from the 12th century. The present Sainte-Trinité Church was rebuilt after the municipality decided in 1857 to replace the dilapidated first church. On its southwest façade, the church has a portal with two archivolts, surmounted by an archivolt decorated with sawtooth ornamentation.
