In the Forest of Mesnil, the « Maison des fées » or « Maison des Feins » constitues a great beauty place for excursions. Formerly, it was usual to associate fairies with megaliths. It is one of the best preserved megalithic monuments of Bretagne.

During the Middle Ages, growths a powerful feudal power structure, this era bequeathed us the Castle of Combourg^[2], built between the eleventh century and the fifteenth century on a hill, beside the « Lac Tranquille ». Later, the French writer François-René de Chateaubriand^[3] speaks in his Memoirs about ghosts haunting the « Château de Combourg ».
