Sept-Forges, in the Passais region, was part of the province of Maine after a temporary annexation to the Duchy of Normandy by William the Conqueror in 1050. The fief of Mebzon was thus transferred to the county of Maine. The manor of Mebzon is a fine example of civil architecture of the Middle Ages in the land of Maine. Surmounted by a magnificent frame, it offers a slender silhouette due to a gap in its home, no doubt damaged before the Revolution, and has a high quality implementation. Beautiful monastic austere chimneys punctuate vast interior rooms that have not been altered by the successive occupations. An atmosphere of great authenticity emerges from the premises, with the mullions windows, cushions, powerful frames, the formidable volumes of the two rooms on the first floor. Located on the immediate edge of the Mayenne, forming a 90° bend at this point, the manor house had a chapel of which there are still some traces on the ground.
