The bell tower (cad. AB 231): inscription by order of 13 March 1978

Origin and history

The church Saint-Hilaire de Mouleron-en-Pareds is a 15th-century religious building located in the present-day commune of Mouleron-Saint-Germain. This monument, classified among the Historical Monuments, is distinguished notably by its bell tower, protected by a decree of inscription in 1978. Its exact location, 3 Place Jean de Lattre de Tassigny, corresponds to the former commune of Mouleron-en-Pareds, today merged.

The location of the church is documented with an accuracy deemed fair (level 5/10), and its official address in the Mérimée base refers to Insee code 85154, confirming its membership in the Vendée department and the Pays de la Loire region. Although available sources (Monumentum, internal data) do not detail its architectural history or transformations, its status as a Historic Monument underscores its heritage importance. The bell tower, the only explicitly protected element, bears witness to the historic and artistic value of the building.

Practical information, such as openness to visit or possible services (rental, accommodation), is not specified in the sources consulted. The church thus remains mainly known for its territorial anchor and partial protection, reflecting the rural religious heritage of the Vendée.
