Saint-Aubin-du-Pavail (Breton: "Sant-Albin-ar-Pavez") is a commune in the Ille-et-Vilaine department in Bretagne in northwestern France.

History

The church of Saint-Aubin-du-Pavail is mentioned for the first time in the mid-11th century: Brient, seigneurs of Chateaubriant, gave the tithe church of Saint-Aubin to the Abbaye de Marmoutier, at the time of the foundation of the priory of Béré. The donation was confirmed in 1217, but the parish of Saint-Aubin-du-Pavail is in reality attested only since 1245. It depended formerly on the old bishopric of Rennes. The seigneurie of Saint-Aubin-of-Pavail was the concern of the barony of Châteaugiron. It passes by alliance at the end of 15th century to seigneurs de Boisorcan, who linked it with their châtellenie in 1583.
