Cell towers in Villeveque (Maine-et-Loire)

Most of the town's 6 masts are pylons (5); 1 water tower make up the rest of the mix.

Antennas are listed at Clos Vannier, Chem de la Buchetière, La Dionnière, Route de Seiches, La Potardière and La Motte.

The declared supports are a 36 m pylon, at Clos Vannier, for Free Mobile; a 39 m water tower, at Chem de la Buchetière, for Orange; a 25 m pylon, at La Dionnière, for Orange; a 38 m pylon, at Route de Seiches, for Free Mobile; a 48 m pylon, at La Potardière, for Bouygues Telecom and SFR; a 29 m pylon, at La Motte, for Bouygues Telecom and SFR.

ANFR lists a 48 m pylon at La Potardière as the tallest structure. The median is 37 m, above the Maine-et-Loire median of 34 m.

Systems from 2004 are still on the register. Free Mobile switched on the first 5G here in March 2021; Orange followed in March 2022, Bouygues Telecom followed in December 2022. 2018 was the busiest year, with 7 new systems, most of them 4G.

Approved additions not yet in service are pending on one existing mast, for example Orange (4G and 5G) at La Dionnière. 2 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Bouygues Telecom on 1 of its 2 masts, Free Mobile on 1 of its 2 masts, Orange on 1 of its 2 masts and SFR on 1 of its 2 masts. 5G is on 67% of masts here, against 84% across Maine-et-Loire towns with five or more masts.

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 4.5 km, to the south of the centre.

Nearby, Avrille (14 km to the south-west) has a higher 5G share (100%).

Among the 25 Maine-et-Loire towns with at least five masts, Villeveque ranks 20th by mast count. With 6 masts for 5,644 residents, or 11 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (14).

Figures above cover installations declared to ANFR as in service or technically operational, as of October 2026; approved projects are not counted.
