Montreuil-Bellay (French pronunciation: [mɔ̃tʁœj bɛlɛ] ⓘ) is a commune in the Maine-et-Loire department in western France.
It is located approximately 15 km to the south of Saumur, and is famous for the Château de Montreuil-Bellay, which is situated in the town.
Montreuil-Bellay is on the Thouet, and was the head of navigation until navigation ceased at the beginning of the 20th century.[3] The navigation works were undertaken in the 15th century by the lords of Montreuil-Bellay, who in turn were granted letters patent by King Charles VII allowing them to raise a tax on wine that would pass through their land.[4] Montreuil-Bellay station has rail connections to Tours, Saumur, Bressuire and La Roche-sur-Yon.
