Manthes is a beautiful village well worth a visit. The village is crossed by five watercourses, one of which, the Veuse, has its source here. There are ponds, a fish farm, a church and its 11th-century priory which once housed six monks, and a central square next to lovely stretches of water.
So, keep your eyes peeled and be curious, as this village has a long history, like so many others.
