Historical background


MAINE

Located between Normandy, Brittany, Anjou, Touraine and Orleans, the province of Maine has been a county since the 9th century. Belonging to the counts of Anjou, it became English in 1154. Confiscated in 1203, it was then given by Saint Louis to his brother Charles of Anjou. The province then passes by marriage to Charles de Valois and, on the extinction of this house, returns to the crown. Since the Revolution, Maine forms the departments of Sarthe and Mayenne.
