Discover Saint-Félix-De-Reillac-Et-Mortemart

Churches and the history of Mortemart appeal to travelers who want to explore historic places; a road cycling route, golf and a leisure park add a variety of activities. For practical planning, note that guided tours at Sangliers de Mortemart are available by appointment only, and Jacquou Parc operates seasonally.

Churches and history in Mortemart

The Romanesque church of Saint-Félix-de-Reilhac is adorned with stained-glass windows and statues. If you are interested in churches, you will find three specific points of interest here: its Romanesque classification, the windows and the statues. The building style and the furnishings offer different perspectives. The classification describes the type of building, while the windows and statues indicate its decorative features. You can therefore plan your stay according to whether you are particularly interested in church architecture or its furnishings.

Different architectural features take center stage at the Eglise Saint-Jean-Baptiste-de-Mortemart: it has a bell tower in the form of a gable wall and a truncated tower. These details offer a second architectural focus. Together with the Romanesque church, they let you include different church styles in your plans without considering both through the same features.

The Eglise Saint-Jean et presbytère de Mortemart has been partially protected as a historic monument since November 9, 1984. Mortemart was also a former commandery used by the Knights Hospitaller of St. John of Jerusalem. The village was also a stop on the Way of St. James. These two historical connections highlight different aspects: on the one hand, the former use by a military order; on the other, Mortemart’s role in the context of the pilgrimage route.

Road cycling and golf

The commune of Saint-Félix-de-Reillac-et-Mortemart has at least one road cycling route within a network of low-traffic, speed-restricted roads. If you would like to include a bike ride in your stay, the road cycling route is a specific option. The stated features of the network also give you an idea of how the local cycling offer is described.

Golf de la Marterie has an 18-hole, par-73 course measuring 5,776 meters. The number of holes, par and length provide different details to consider when including golf in your plans. The landscape is another aspect: the course winds through an unspoiled forest where oak and chestnut trees grow alongside heather and gorse. You can take both the sporting details and the forest character described into account. Current booking conditions may vary; check them before making specific plans.

Planning tours and leisure activities

Guided tours at Sangliers de Mortemart are available by prior appointment only. If you plan to visit, arrange a time in advance. This makes the visit different from a spontaneous outing: arranging an appointment is part of the planning process.

The various attractions give you several leisure options in one place: rides are complemented by a water area with activities for different age groups. Seasonal opening may vary; check the dates before visiting. If you would like to include an outing like this in your stay, take this seasonal condition into account when planning.
