Beaufou (French pronunciation: [bofu]) is a small village in the region of Pays de la Loire in western France.

Polished stone axes were found at Auspierre, Boisrond, La Charnière and Pré-Sec.

The Roman road linking Saint-Georges-de-Montaigu to Sables d'Olonne crossed the town of Auspierre through Cantria and Marlaie.

The Romanesque church of Our Lady of the Annunciation, built in the twelfth century, depended on the abbey of Marmoutier-les-Tours (Indre-et-Loire).

In 1793 and 1794, during their 13 passages, the infernal columns massacred a large part of the population and burned 57 houses and the church, which was restored in the early nineteenth century.
