Top 48 things to do and attractions in Tours

This place was very special and of course worth visiting when in Tours. I learned from my friend (local and history enthusiastic) that the walking nave around the altarpiece was usual in cathedrals across pilgrimage routes. In that way the pilgrims visiting wouldn't disturb the priest or service as much.

Very old and very peaceful. The stained glass windows are incredible as is all the paintings.

If you appreciate Medieval architecture then you must visit Cathédrale Saint-Gatien when visiting Tours. It has a beautiful Flamboyant Gothic west portail and majestic interiors. It is a feast for the eyes!

Free entry and it would be one of my favourite old churches, great design, immense height and stunning workmanship.

The first cathedral I have visited in France, keep my good memory stay here.

A beautiful Cathedral in Tours and well worth a visit. Tours is a lovely town and easy to walk around. Would pay to leave the car at a parking lot by the river and walk in.

Amazing landmark with lots of history. Such a shame the historic information limited only in French language for a UNESCO registered building

This is an important basilica built over the tomb of St. Martin, the patron saint of Tours. We passed by while in the city recently and found this to be an interesting church to visit. Interestingly, the basilica history seems to have begun in the 5th century. However, the present building that you see was only constructed between 1886 and 1924 replacing the earlier medieval building that was demolished during the French Revolution. It is Neo-Byzantine in architectural style which would have been different to the Gothic features of the earlier church. The exterior and facade that can be seen today is fine, the interior nice to view as well. It includes a latin cross layout, modest decor and a crypt where you can see the tomb of St. Martin.

Saint Martin’s tomb is in the crypt, which is a must see. Another key part of this church is the main altar. The wooden painted ceiling is also quite peculiar

Greatness! This basilica is just immense and has the beautiful statue on top if the exterior dome. The true gem is in the crypt where Saint Martin is buried. Pilgrims used to be organized to pray in front of his remains

An old and interesting church. You can visit a room below the main stage. In this room you can find the skull of the priest of this church. You don’t have to pay anything to visit this place.

Lovely basilica. Open daily.

Night view is just perfect

Beautiful Basilica. Years ago, there was John Paul II.

This is a small but nice garden within the grounds of Musée des Beaux-Arts in Tours. The garden is very nicely manicured and makes for a lovely short walk to enjoy its grounds. There is a kiosk and a few chairs under the foliage of mature trees if you fancy a beverage or rest within the garden grounds.

Wonder gardens, a perfect way to spend a relaxed afternoon!

There is an ancient tree at the center of the garden. I recommend to see it!

Great and quiet

I love this gardens and play park for the kids and fritz the éléphant

Beautiful, plenty of sitting

A nice small museum that took me about an hour to walk through. There is almost nothing written in English in the museum, so it's good to carry Google Translate with you (just one staff member seemed to know English). Lots of artwork from the 1800s from known artists, and also a few impressionist (and neo) works. Also a bit of modern work that was pretty nice. It's in a really old house that is interesting, and some sculptures and clocks on display. Easily worth the ticket price, and after several days in Paris museums this was relaxing since very few people inside. As I said, have translation app with you!

The best place for you to visit. It’s very interesting. It had three floors with art frames. There is a room dedicated to the history of Tours. You need pay 8 euros for visit the museum.

A thoroughly enjoyable walk through history! And the gardens were lovely too.

Beautiful building. Lots of history. Cafe in the grounds too with outdoor seating.

A good art museum with interesting (and some famous) works. A pity it has a common toillete when men, women, and children use the same lavatory area. Also, so of the employees (woman, white, seemed like manager or some kind of boss) is short tempered and completely in the wrong job of working with the public.

Walkable museum with a good collection of art.

A great collection of art, both classic and contemporary. Didn’t expect to see Goncharova, Monet, and other masters here. Definitely worth a visit

Not the same without Marco et Adrien. Nonetheless it was a great trip.

Old square in Tours with some touristy resteraunts. Pretty small square filled with resteraunt tables. Much nicer vibe down some of the old streets approaching the square and some historical sites, such as the old Executioners house which are worth hunting round for

Beautiful city, amazing old buildings. Love it. I will come again and spend more time.

Beautiful historic buildings, with streets lined with a great selection of bars and restaurants. Keep an eye out for ancient woodwork (in varying states of repair) on the ancient buildings. Lovely buzzing atmosphere, popular with Tour's large student crowd.

Lovely with fun restaurants. Plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the classic architecture of the area.

A lovely area of Tours. Been visiting now for almost 40 years, plenty of restaurants, plenty of bars, find the ones that suit your purpose. Or just wander around and visit the shops.

A marvelous place, unexpectedly! Really magical, ancient and such an atmoshpere of an exceptional well-preserved historical place.

Well worth a visit, the museum is full of very interesting things that have been made, I could have stayed there all day, the workmanship is outstanding and the only thing I would have liked to see was an English translation, I would have loved to have learned more.

Good museum. Little in English. Introdctory talk in French and difficult to understand

An interesting insight into the history of the 'guilds', and precursors to trade unions. Also some fascinating examples of the items prepared for admission into said guilds, and the prized 'cane' acquired. Beware, dont follow Google Maps for the entrance, it is now from Rue Nationale, down the stairs in front of St Julian's, and to the left. (Stairs beside the small building on the corner of Rue Colbert, with the hairdresser). It is also only accessible by a steel staircase. Another display there, but only until Nov '22, is on the rebuild of Notre Dame (all in French).

A lovely little museum, full of hand crafted items from tradesmen guilds.

Very interesting to learn about this talented people! The museum is located close to the Rue National and it’s a great option for both kids and adults. I wish it would’ve been bigger, some sort of audiovisual guide would’ve been nice as well.

Beautiful museum with lots on display and friendly and helpful staff about the history of trades in France. Something totally new for me and interesting to see in its own unique place. Only about 2€ for students and free with the PCE!

Small but interesting collection of what I would call curiosities. Friendly staff too

The botanical garden was delightful, featuring a diverse array of plants. Additionally, there were some animals, which added to the overall experience.

Lovely park and gardens with cute animals. They seem unbothered by people and dogs. I was able to take my dogs in which is kind of rare for a nice park with gardens. Free entrance and not many people in.

Lovely, peaceful, well maintained, huge variety of plants, lovely seating areas Play area for children. Animals seemed a bit superfluous.

Very nice gardens. Lots to look at and animals as well as plants. Plenty of shady seating if you want to bring a picnic. There are toilets and drinkable water from fountains. It is free.

This place is calm and relaxed, you can see some turtles, chickens and goats. In the Garden we have a botanical garden house, with three distinct spaces, such as a tropical forest and a savannah. You don't have to pay to enter, it's a pleasant walk.

It's quite a nice place to bring tour kids or just to chill out from the merciless sun of July. There are plenty of animals, many are domesticated animals so it's totally fun for kids to play and learn with it. The space is big enough for walks, strolls, and spacing out. Even found a wedding couple celebrating their big day in the garden last weekend. The entrance is free and the toilet is quite decent. Really helpful.

Me and my kid love this place. Quiet, pleasant, with educational values and with a playground. And with animals and mini zoo. Unfortunately, pets (e.g. turtles) are closed quite early and at 18 you will not see them again. Minus one star for short opening hours.

Mixed bag of exhibts over the 4 different floors of the Château. I could have given floors 1 and 2 miss but I found the exhibition on floor 3 to be fascinating. The real let down of the visit was on the 4th floor where I couldn't see the point of the collection, perhaps as I am not French. However, I am a movie buff and in that regard, I could see merit in the 4th floor as an historical artifact. I was amused by the 4th floor as much as anything else. Overall, a good way to spend an hour but hard to stretch that further. The Château itself was the highlight of the visit for me. The staff were friendly and helpful as I didn't speak French.

I absolutely loved this town. Locals I chatted with seemed very friendly. Has a old town vibe still. Good food and drink places. Cool sights to see. North tours has a nice bridge to walk over. NOT AN UBER OR LYFT FRIENDLY city. Cabs suck and frequently didn't show up after requesting a ride with them. Used public transit and walked a lot, so prepare yourself for that if you plan on visiting.

Stunning castle and well worth the visit

Beautifull expo! Tip: Don’t go inside 30 min before closing time. Because 15 min before closing they want you to leave!

I came here as a tourist, was mostly disappointed because I expected to see a Château but I did see a modern art expedition. Of note was a article with drawings from Carney’s Pariseins from 3 March 2001 when the Taliban blew up the giant Buddhist statues in the Bamiyan Valley.

As a castle, it's small and has not any interest. There's also a kind of very small garden behind it, nice if you happen to walk by, not worth more than 30 seconds. As a museum and exhibition place, it's very good. Often exhibitions are free and interesting, the place is authentic and the wooden stairs are very nice. It's quite well located close to the city center and by the Loire river.

Out of all the chateaus and places of interest during my trip down the Loire Valley, this has to be hands down, the most unexciting and waste of time.

Best medieval town in the Loire Valley.

Nice place but not dog friendly unfortunately

Its closed and frontage is interesting but no info was available

Cool expo with free admission

Art gallery in an old hotel, the building itself is stunning, a perfect backdrop for the displays. And it's free to go in.

A little treasure.

Tours completely destroyed my opinion about the city by the absolute lack of parking space. I stayed 3 nights in the city. The hotel (Hilton brand) offered no parking. I had to cruise the city to find the spot. I noticed many other drivers doing the same. On each day I finally found free space far away from my hotel. Extreme case, on Friday evening I spent 30 minutes cruising (losing fuel and spoiling the atmosphere) and I found the space 1 km from my hotel. Incredible pity. Otherwise the city is so nice, but I will always remember my frustration.

Haven’t been it at all but all festivities were around it

Good architecture of Tours city hall and remarkable landmark!

It's a lovely place to visit. Less busy than larger cities but a very nice place for a coffee and to enjoy the day.

Hotel de ville Very beautiful place with special architecture and amazing design located in the center of the city tour. You can visit there🫶🏽

Wonderful hotel, wonderful service, we will come again.

Great architecture

I’m originally from Australia and I have been travelling around Europe. First night in Tours, I find this delightful place which is all about atmosphere. There has been nothing like this before in my life where I could sit and watch the world go by, seeing everyone having a laugh, a dance and most of all, having a good time. If you’re travelling to Tours with a couple of friends or even just a solo/duo traveller, I recommend you come here to enjoy both the people, the nature and Ofc, the drinks.

Absolutely fabulous place, so much to see and do. Will definitely be back

Good spot right on the river.

Lovely riverside place. Good bar and soft drinks, stage area, and lots of basic loos. Food is limited but tasty.

Top! A great spot to chill, read a book (with a glass), meet with friends or create new friendship's and dance the night away! It is what you make it! The Guinguette is really well thought out to accomidate all, the staff are super and you feel at ease with security. It's now my favourite spot in Tours for the Summer... Enjony it while it's open!

Very nice. A little overrated for what it is. There are thousands of way to watch life going by with a smile on your face. This is just one of it and there are other places like this one ☺️

Just amazing place to hang out and hear live music. France excells at multi cultural mash ups and I caught hip hop dance throw downs, dub reggae Sound Systems and Cuban tinged jazz. Tres bon. Music seems to be Sat nights from 9pm

An oasis of greenery and relaxation in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the city

Very cute little garden in the middle of Tours, perfect place to hang out as a family ❤️ my baby was thrilled as there is big playground for her and a small pond where you can watch ducks and fishes! There is even a specialty coffee shop in the park, would come back there to chill for sure 🥰

A Wonderful and tranquil garden perfect to meet with friends, grab a coffee or read a book. Plenty of green spaces, benches, chairs and a little cafe as well. Gorgeous during the change of seasons with its colour

beautiful park inside city. its a botanical garden with fountain, river & playground for young & old. Its suitable to have exercise, walk or just sit & relax and enjoy the nature

Very nice park with lots of flowers and a pond with koi fish and ducks. A peaceful and relaxing spot to spend some time.

Although it is a small garden, it is a very beautiful one. What a gem! Ok, it may only take you 15 to 30 minutes to walk around it. Yet, it is so well kept, with fresh flowers and great trees, that you will love it. A "point de beauté" of the city of Tours.

This park is astonishing. The many, mature, enormous trees create the feeling of a cozy canopy over the entire park. Includes species from around the world, including Giant Sequoias (native to California) and Bald Cypress (native to Southeast United States). Immaculately manicured and the landscape design create lots of spaces that feel private and lots of ponds with wildlife. Includes a small ice cream shop. We didn't want to leave.

We spent ages at this place. It has so much to look at and a lot of poetry to listen to. Really nicely done interactions as you go around the gardens, ruins and Ronsard’s house. A good exhibition to start with showing the history of the place. We didn’t have any food but we love the self service food in jars. Lots of lovely places outside to sit and eat your food. Good toilets and a good sized car park. Lots of deck chairs, hammocks and other seating if you want to sit and relax, read or have a go at writing some poetry. There was also an amazing exhibition of ‘poor books’ and work by local students based on the rose.

5 mn from Tours by car, home of the famous French Renaissance poet Pierre de Ronsard. Beautiful historic site with a peaceful contemplative atmosphere. Magnificent restored Renaissance manor, combined with contemporary artists-in-residence exhibits make it a lovely short day trip near Tours.

It’s not surprising that such a beautiful and serene locale nurtured the creativity of one of the world’s great poets. Friendly staff, beautiful exhibits, lovely grounds. A must in Tours.

Absolute an tip. Here you can relax and strole a bit around. Ok the monastery is ruined, but it is so nicely kept and arranged. The house of the poet is fully intact and can be visited. Only the highway disturb a bit, but we all drive cars😏. So the visit takes about 1-2 hours, but all over the place are resting seats and hammock-seats to relax a bit. So stressfull Tours can be, so relaxing this place is. Also roses can be bought as plants. Entrance price was 6€ and parking is free. Also easy flat paths can be managed by elderly people.

Guys, all those who visit this place, please leave a review! It should be highly recommended on google maps as attraction since it is the most interesting place I have visited when I was at Tours! Not the Tours castle or the museums which were closed in a Tuesday (very confusing, but I don't regret, since I had time to visit place and it was by the end of the day)

Super! Gardens are lovely and with a nice “fresh” touch: hammocks and comfortable chairs! Wonderful to experience this important place for a great poet, Pierre Ronsard.

This priory dates back from the Roman times. A lot of history of the Protestant and Roman catholic struggle beginning with the assasination ordered by Catherine of Medici. Free car parking.

Excellent

Well worth the 4 euros to visit the cloisters. Do take the information leaflet and read it as you go round. There is some amazing architecture on show however it is rather bare in the upper rooms. Be aware it is not accessible by wheelchair or pushchair as you have to ascend a narrow spiral staircase.

Interesting but short visit.

(Translated by Google) Open Wednesday to Sunday from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm. US$ 5.00 pp. This former cloister is open to visitors and is located within the grounds of the Cathédral St-Gatien. In the Middle Ages and Renaissance, La Psalette was a vocal music school attached to a church, where young people received a high level of musical and religious education. From the early Middle Ages (5th to 10th centuries), the cloister was the workplace of the canons of the Cathedral of Saint-Gatien. In the late medieval period, the chapter, also called the assembly of canons, experienced great cultural activity thanks to its manuscript copying workshop, the scriptorium, and its library, which was then one of the richest in France. Three galleries still exist today. At the corner of the north and east galleries, a magnificent spiral staircase gives access to the upper floor. It opens to the outside through large windows. Inside, a core leads the eye to the top of the screw, which ends in a coffered ceiling. (Original) Aberta de quarta a domingo das 14:00 às 17hs. EU$ 5.00 pp. Antigo claustro aberto a visitação, fica dentro das dependências da Cathédral St-Gatien. Na Idade Média e no Renascimento, La Psalette era uma escola de música vocal anexa a uma igreja, onde os jovens recebiam um alto nível de educação musical e religiosa. Desde o início da Idade Média (séculos V a X), o claustro foi o local de trabalho dos cônegos da Catedral de Saint-Gatien. No final do período medieval, o capítulo, também chamado de assembleia de cônegos, experimentou grande atividade cultural graças à sua oficina de cópia de manuscritos, o scriptorium, e à sua biblioteca, que era então uma das mais ricas da França. Três galerias ainda existem hoje. Na esquina das galerias norte e leste, uma magnífica escada em espiral dá acesso ao andar superior. Ela se abre para o exterior através de grandes janelas. No interior, um núcleo conduz o olhar até o topo do parafuso, que termina em um teto artesoado.

(Translated by Google) It is a very beautiful cloister and allows you to see one of the rose windows of the cathedral very close and well. There is also a super beautiful monumental spiral staircase. Currently there is also a photography exhibition. What I can't understand is that there are some chairs and ladies go sunbathe 😳 And €3.50 seems a little expensive to me simply to see this small space. (Original) Es un claustro muy bonito y permite ver muy cerca y bien uno de los rosetones de la catedral. Además hay una escalera de caracol monumental super bonita. Actualmente hay también una exposición de fotografía. Lo que no alcanzo a entender es que haya unas sillas y vayan señoras a tomar el sol 😳 Y 3.50€ me parece un poco caro simplemente por ver este espacio tan pequeño.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful cloister. Beautiful view of the cathedral. But the ongoing construction spoils the visit. Access to the cloister in the cathedral (Original) Joli cloître. Belle vue sur la cathédrale. Mais les travaux en cours gâchent la visite. Accès au cloître dans la cathedrale

(Translated by Google) I agree with the other comments that point to the odious attitude of the blonde cashier at the ticket office. During my visit to the cloister, I unfortunately experienced a very shocking experience. As a European Union citizen under the age of 26, I was supposed to have free admission to the historic monument. However, when I simply asked if the visit was possible, the receptionist replied, "Yes, it's paid," without asking me any questions or informing me that young people are entitled to free admission. So I paid €4 in cash, thinking this was normal. When I returned to calmly report this error, not only did the cashier refuse any refund, despite the fact that it was a cash ticket and therefore easily refundable, but she also held me responsible. She implied that I should have known before paying (which is absurd in a cultural venue that's supposed to inform its visitors) and spoke to me in a curt and condescending tone, concluding that she would "escalate" the situation, as if I were at fault. A completely inappropriate reaction. When I pointed out to her that the situation wasn't normal, she stared at me for a long time in silence, with a cold and hostile stare, which I experienced as intimidation. She spoke of "dissatisfaction" with me, when she simply hadn't respected a legal obligation to provide free admission. I left with a deep sense of injustice and the impression of having been ripped off, which is unacceptable in a public cultural site. It's a shame, because the cloister is worth the visit, but such a welcome completely spoils the experience. (Original) Je rejoins les autres commentaires qui signalent l’attitude odieuse de la caissière blonde à la billetterie. Lors de ma visite du cloître, j’ai malheureusement vécu une situation très choquante. En tant que ressortissante de l’Union européenne âgée de moins de 26 ans, je devais bénéficier de la gratuité dans le monument historique. Pourtant, en demandant simplement si la visite était possible, la personne à l’accueil m’a répondu : « oui, c’est payant » sans me poser de questions ni m'informer que les jeunes beneficient de la gratuité. J’ai donc payé 4 € en espèces, pensant que c’était normal. Lorsque je suis revenue pour signaler calmement cette erreur, non seulement la caissière a refusé tout remboursement, malgré le fait qu’il s’agissait d’un billet payé en liquide et donc facilement remboursable, mais elle m’a aussi tenue pour responsable. Elle a insinué que j’aurais dû savoir avant de payer (ce qui est absurde dans un lieu culturel censé informer ses visiteurs) et m’a parlé sur un ton sec et condescendant, concluant qu’elle « ferait remonter » la situation, comme si j’étais fautive. Une réaction totalement déplacée. Quand je lui ai fait remarquer que la situation n’était pas normale, elle m’a fixée longuement en silence, avec un regard froid et hostile, que j'ai vécu comme de l'intimidation. Elle a parlé de « mécontentement » à mon sujet, alors qu’elle n’a tout simplement pas respecté une obligation légale de gratuité. Je suis repartie avec un profond sentiment d’injustice et l’impression de m’être fait arnaquer, ce qui est inacceptable dans un site culturel public. Dommage, car le cloître mérite la visite, mais un tel accueil en gâche complètement l’expérience.

(Translated by Google) The park has many advantages: it is spacious and great, there is a playground for children and even easy-to-access and quiet corners for reading.

(Translated by Google) Pleasant park, missing some water features for the summer in my opinion, and it's a shame there's no longer a sensory trail. But 5 stars anyway because there's a beach area, and that's cool. (Original) Parc agréable, manque qlq jeu d'eau pour l'été selon moi et dommage qu n'y ai plus le parcours sensoriel.

We enjoyed seeing this 48 metre tall, 11th-century tower that was once part of a medieval basilica that was demolished during the French Revolution. It is across a small street and clearly separate to the present day late 19th-century basilica. Sadly the tower, being separated from the original church began to lose its structural integrity and partially collapsed in 1926. Various 20th-century restorations finally managed to reconstruct the tour, which is considered a National Monument, to what you see today. Information panels (French & English) next to the tower detail much of this history and is worth a read if interested in the building and basilica history.

Nice church in Tours.

Its in thé vieux tours, old part of the City,you can climb thé steps for a fantastique view

Very impressive church with the different level alters

Impressive

hundred years history，beautiful

Oh my Goodness!!!! Charlemagne died in 800 in this town, shortly thereafter the Carolingians started on this tower. Reported finish date is around 1000AD. Which makes sense with the unique Norman architectural elements ( short arches, Norman style edging similar to embroidery on the arches, pillars; solid, Romanesque original construction which looks a great deal like Norman/Lombard towers you will see in middle Italy and Sicily. The tower at Formia, north of Naples italy shares many charachteristics. Later modifications are easy to see. Buttresses, etc. It is an Absolute Tragedy the Original Romanesque Accompanied Church did not make it through the French Revolution. It must have been equally Immense, and keenly Crafted. The tower finally had almost 1/2 fall from neglect, absusive use as a lead Smeltery, carpenter shop, etc. Thank The Good Lord it was restored. MUST SEE ITEM

Quite interesting church, going all the way to the VI century! Unfortunately, it’s closed due to covid restrictions.

When u arrived Tours must 1st come here to check this place its near to the tramp station and at the start of the famous shopping street.

Founded in 510AD and rebuilt numerous times the church is a testament to the French ability to rebuild and survive. The stain glass, likely the 3rd installation over the 1500 years remains impressive.

Last visit was to see and hear 2 chorals, one local the second from California. Great show. The church itself is worth the visit if you are into churches and/or Tours.

(Translated by Google) During the Middle Ages, the abbey was an important religious and cultural center, housing relics of Saint Julian and attracting pilgrims. Initially founded as a basilica dedicated to Saint Julian, it was transformed into a Benedictine abbey in the 8th century. Over the centuries, the site underwent several reconstructions due to invasions, wars, and disasters, such as the Norman attacks in the 9th century and fires. It was closed and gives the impression of abandonment. (Original) Durante a Idade Média, a abadia foi um importante centro religioso e cultural, abrigando relíquias de São Julião e atraindo peregrinos. Fundada inicialmente como uma basílica dedicada a São Julião, ela foi transformada em abadia beneditina no século VIII. Ao longo dos séculos, o local passou por diversas reconstruções devido a invasões, guerras e desastres, como os ataques normandos no século IX e incêndios. Estava fechada e passa a impressão de abandono.

A really great experience. The courses are well designed and maintained, the staff is very friendly and helpful. Plenty of options even for very young kids. Highly recommended for a family visit

Cool place with a very nice and supporting team. The kids loved it.

Great value for all the family. Staff were super helpful. Highly recommend.

Excellent family day out. My kids aged 7 and 10 had a great time. The staff are super helpful. The zip lines are fantastic!

Fun for adults and kids. €16 pp for sensation course, 6m up and zip line above water, 3 courses. More are available

Amazing for families & a bit pricey but worth the price. Our daughter has some challenges and needed lots of help but Charlie assisted and encouraged her repeatedly during the day. In fact all the staff is super helpful and the place is well organized.

Brilliant! Really great high ropes activity for all ages. There's something for everyone over 3 years old as long as you are over 90cm tall. My 4 & 6 year olds really enjoyed it and it was great value compared to similar things in the UK, and possibly a bit better!

Lots of fresh fruit, meat & foodstuffs. Perhaps a bit pricier , but the quality is probably higher. Bought myself a beef bahn-mi …on a baguette! 🙂 when in France….

Very good market. I strongly recommend the first fromagerie on the left. There is also good snack food around.

What a great find on a Tuesday morning! The best way to enjoy the Halles is to walk into it and take a whiff of every stand. Food is artfully highlighted. Beef, veal, poultry are respectfully displayed. Cheeses galore almost got me drunk just smelling them all! So now it's your turn to visit the halles in Tours and its surrounding..... It is quite a beautiful town!

Fabulous and so much choice

Fantastic food hall. Huge range of stalls and wonderful selection of products. Loved this place.

I want to come back and spend more time here! An amazing collection of pâtisseries, boulangeries, charcuteries, boucheries, clothing shops, and cafés. Tours is amazing as a whole, but if it's a rainy day, Les Halles will be a fun way to avoid the raindrops!

Always with a visit. You are sure too be tempted to buy some superb produce.

Super interesting place presenting very varied work. Exhibitions are temporary so check the dates beforehand if you want to be sure to see what you want. Shout out to the people welcoming you at the desk, they are the sweetest!

This space has so much potential, unfortunately at the moment half of its space is taken by a pretentious and pointless exhibition by Christodoulos Panayiotou which is hugely underwhelming, trying to play on minimalist themes but failing completely. The other one, by Nicolas Lamas, is quite nice though (some pics attached)z No-go for July 2021 but maybe they’ll have some interesting exhibitions in the future.

A wonderful exhibition centre. Three super artist on display. Well worth the trip

Nice gallery some very interesting pieces.

Had to wait half an hour due to max capacity being reached. Meanwhile a delightful staff member told us all about the building and its exhibition. Exhibition was definitely worth the wait except the one in the white gallery, but the rest made up for it!

Beautiful gallery with interesting exhibits, helpful staff, and well kept and clean display areas. I come here frequently to see the artworks and exhibitions. They also change quite often which is nice.

Lovely contemporary art and nicely exhibited!

Genial

Super 👍👍👍👍

Great night out

(Translated by Google) Super nice evening, quality meal with responsive service. For the atmosphere, super nice however we would have preferred to have more transformist like the first number by Mylène Farmer it started so well we would have liked to see more numbers of this style with Dalida for example. However, we will come back with pleasure! All the staff, dancers, Nello, are great, very smiling and professional. (Original) Soirée super sympa, repas de qualité avec un service réactif. Pour l’ambiance, super sympa cependant nous aurions préférés avoir plus de transformiste comme le premier numéro de Mylène Farmer ça commençais tellement bien nous aurions voulu voir plus de numéro de ce style avec Dalida par exemple. Nous reviendrons cependant avec plaisir ! Tous le personnels, danseurs, Nello, sont géniaux, très souriant et professionnel.

(Translated by Google) What a lovely evening spent at Nello’s. The costumes, the glitter, the humor. An excellent meal, everything is there to please you. Go for it (Original) Quelle belle soirée passée chez Nello. Les costumes, les paillettes, l'humour. Un excellent repas, tout est là pour se faire plaisir. Allez y

(Translated by Google) Above all, don't change a thing. We had an exceptional evening. The food was good, the service was efficient, and the show was very effective. We laughed a lot and enjoyed the atmosphere. Thank you to the entire team. (Original) Surtout ne changé rien nous avons passé une soirée exceptionnel, bien mangé service efficace spectacle très efficace nous avons beaucoup rigolé et profité de cette ambiance. Merci à toutes l'équipe.

(Translated by Google) Too many negative points to give it better than 2 stars: - The meal is truly the worst point and even a rip-off given the price charged. Eat elsewhere before coming! - Sitting at a table and high chair for 6 hours was so uncomfortable it became unbearable. - The show: the performers are clearly beyond reproach. The problem is the way the show is put together: constantly interrupted and chopped up with incessant downtime, you get bored and want it to finally end... A huge disappointment for us, especially since we've already seen other shows and cabaret shows of the same genre. (Original) Trop de point négatif pour mettre mieux que 2 étoiles : - le repas est vraiment le point le plus négatif et même une arnaque vue le prix facturé , manger ailleurs avant de venir ! - installé sur une table et chaise haute pendant 6 heures tellement inconfortable que ça en devient insupportable - le spectacle : les artistes ne sont clairement pas à remettent en cause . Le problème est la façon dont est monté le spectacle : sans arrêt entrecoupé et haché avec de temps morts incessants , ont arrive à s’ennuyer avec l’envie que ça se termine enfin … Très grosse déception nous concernant surtout pour avoir déjà fait d’autre spectacle et cabaret du même genre .

It is a decent museum and not too expensive. The stuffed animals are a hit or miss. Some are beautifully done, some have been subjected to the artist's interpretation. As it is a good collection, it would've been nice to see the animals more grouped in a diorama type style. Now it was missing cohesion and we were out within an hour. Good value for money tho!!

This is a nice and reasonably priced, local natural history museum in the historic city of Tours. We spent the earlier part of the day strolling through the historic section but had some free time. The Museum of Natural History is larger than it appears (from the outside) and can easily take an hour or two to peruse the 3 floors. The first floor had a lot of interactive science exhibits, letting you play the role a researcher with a lot of flora and fauna examples native to this region of France. The second floor houses a very nicely arranged and coordinated reptile and amphibian space with plenty of live specimens of snakes, frogs, geckos, etc. as well as several insect species. We made a game of finding all of the various specimens in each of the cases which can really take some time & sharp eyes. The third floor house a collection of taxidermy specimens of, mostly, large mammals. Again, well laid out and a pleasant space. The staff were very friendly and we appreciated the clean restrooms and convenient water fountain.

Oh dear, this really is poor. The first bit was very amateurish. You went through plastic curtains to pretend you were at sea. There were a few videos and large photos with long explanations in French. The next floor was closed (they gave me a discount due to this). The final floor was a random display of stuffed animals that reminded me of museums of the 1960s/1970s. The whole thing seemed based on the French 'discovery' of other countries. Travelling the world and bringing back animals to stuff them is a legacy of which people should be ashamed. It's not something to be proudly displayed. I think it took me 10 minutes to look round. Not worth the bother.

Small but very well arranged.

Please don’t give your money to this place - as it fuels animal abuse. The tanks/cages are so small and the animals are clearly suffering. I wish I read reviews before I went as I wouldn’t have gone. Awful place. Please avoid to support welfare of living creatures.

The vivarium alone is well worth the price and wait. I really enjoyed the different ant colonies. During public holidays you have to reserve a time slot or you might have to wait a while.

This place is modest in comparison to some other natural history museums. There are 4 floors of exhibits which friending on the she of you children shouldn't take more than an hour and a half. They have live reptiles as well as larger taxidermied mammals and even some insects and sea creatures. There is a small library as well with some large puzzles. The major lacking element is more interactive exhibits. Very little video or auditory experiences. My favorite was probably the live ants exhibit. Definitely worth a visit but it will not take up a whole day. Luckily it's right next to a walkable area with restaurants and shops to purchase lunch or coffee after our before as this place does close down for 2 hours everyday for lunch so plan ahead! Pricing for families is reasonable. Enjoy!

(Translated by Google) I loved these escape games: in fact, it's the second time I've come here. They were all leaving some in autonomy if we get there. Very good time to spend with family or friends. We even get a photo at the end. A free souvenir photo with our cameras in the settings of the past activity. Very friendly and attentive staff. I highly recommend (Original) J'ai adoré ces escapes games : en effet, c'est la deuxième fois que je viens ici. Ils étaient tout en en laissant en autonomie si on y arrive. Très bon moment à passer en famille ou entre amis. On a même le droit à une photo à la fin. Une photo souvenir gratuite avec nos appareils dans les décors de l'activité passée. Personnel très sympathique et à l'écoute. Je recommande vivement

(Translated by Google) We celebrated our son's 10th birthday with an Escape Game with friends and a snack. Great experience, they all loved it!

(Translated by Google) We had a lot of fun, puzzle at the top. We did the Rakham galleon but luckily we got clues from Coco because despite level 3/10, we had a little trouble with certain puzzles. Thanks to our guide who was great. Great atmosphere and decor. We had a good time. See you next time for the other puzzles 😊. (Original) On s est bien amusé, énigme au top. On a fait le galion de rakham mais heureusement qu on a eu des indices par coco car malgrés le niveau 3 /10 , on a eu un peu de mal sur certaines enigmes. Merci a notre accompagnateur qui était top. Ambiance et decor super. On a passé un bon moment. A une prochaine fois pour les autres enigmes 😊.

(Translated by Google) We were able to test out the new Merlin room on its opening day! We were delighted to discover a modern room imbued with magic, where you don't search for codes, but activate mechanisms. A special shout-out to our druid and his unique voice ;) (Original) Nous avons pu tester la nouvelle salle Merlin le jour de son inauguration ! Avec grand plaisir, nous avons découvert une salle moderne empreinte de magie, où on ne cherche pas des codes, mais on active des mécanismes.

(Translated by Google) A great family time. The Merlin room was very nice and child-friendly! The welcome, the entertainment, and the explanations from the host were excellent! We'll be back. (Original) Super moment en famille. La salle Merlin était tres sympa et adapté aux enfants! L'accueil, l'animation et les explications de l'animateur était au top! On reviendra..

So awesome! Trains, cars, planes ( helicopters) and of course the awesome multilevel playarra. Wow. Bravo! And staff is very friendly.

An absolutely fantastic day out for our children (aged 2 and 6) for a rainy April day. Lots of different activities spread throughout the day and for all abilities. The highlight activities are the spinning tornado, disco, ghost train but there are also slides, sensory areas, bouncy castles with optional extra laser game and high-wire walk. Good hot food choices with a child set menu - note hot food closes at 12:45 so make sure to order before then, otherwise crepes, waffles and snacks etc available later.

Excellent entertainment centre for children. Lots to do and very well organised.

My kids really enjoyed the place

Perfect for a stop with the children! I recommend it!

Super

A nice attraction in the city center

Perfect meeting point

Unfortunately it is not present at the moment. As they are renovating the area.

(Translated by Google) You walk through the picturesque streets of the historic old town of Tours and suddenly you find yourself in front of this impressive monument. I found it super awesome. The moment was fantastic. I think that's exactly what the artist wanted to achieve, so the environment is also part of the art. It fits perfectly ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Original) Man läuft durch die pittoresken Gassen der historischen Altstadt von Tours und plötzlich steht man vor diesem beeindruckenden Monument. Ich fand es mega Krass. Der Moment war fantastisch. Ich denke genau das wollte der Künstler bezwecken, also auch die Umgebung ist Teil der Kunst. Es passt perfekt ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

(Translated by Google) It has no place in old Tours, is absolutely out of place. It would be much better at the Vinci or near the new buildings at the top of Rue Nationale (buildings that unfortunately don't enhance our city either.) A lot of money to clean it up after only 20 years, money that could have been used for the fountain, for which patrons are now being asked. Which is fine, but the money in the monster could have been used for something else. (Original) N'a rien à faire dans le vieux Tours, n'est absolument pas à sa place. Serait bien mieux au Vinci ou près des nouveaux bâtiments en haut de la rue nationale ( bâtiments qui ne mets malheureusement pas non plus notre ville en valeur.) Beaucoup d'argent pour le nettoyer au bout de seulement 20 ans, argent qui aurait pû servir à la fontaine, pour laquelle on demande désormais des mécènes. Ce qui très bien mais l'argent ds le monstre aurait pû servir à autre chose.

(Translated by Google) The Monster of Tours. Is there a monster in your city? Tours has one in the form of a statue in the Place du Grand Marché. The statue used to be near the market halls, but it has since been moved. (Original) Le monstre de Tours. Y'a-t'il un monstre dans votre ville ? Tours en à un en statue place du grand marché . Avant la statue se trouvait près des halles, elle a été déplacé depuis.

(Translated by Google) Xavier Veilhan's The Monster is a work that, in my opinion, suffers from several shortcomings. First, the monster's aesthetic lacks originality and seems to borrow elements from other artists without truly innovating. Furthermore, the work seems devoid of conceptual depth, leaving the viewer with little to interpret. Finally, the choice of placement for the work can also be criticized, as it may not blend harmoniously into its surroundings. Overall, The Monster fails to create a strong emotional or intellectual impact. (Original) Le Monstre de Xavier Veilhan est une œuvre qui, à mon avis, souffre de plusieurs lacunes. Tout d'abord, l'esthétique du monstre manque d'originalité et semble emprunter des éléments à d'autres artistes sans apporter de véritable innovation. De plus, l'œuvre semble dépourvue de profondeur conceptuelle, laissant le spectateur avec peu à interpréter. Enfin, le choix de l'emplacement de l'œuvre peut également être critiqué, car il peut ne pas s'intégrer harmonieusement dans son environnement. Dans l'ensemble, Le Monstre ne parvient pas à susciter un fort impact émotionnel ou intellectuel.

(Translated by Google) I just wanted to thank Mr. Guardian of the places and the history of Typography. It's impressive to see someone so passionate about what they do! He brings you into this unknown and yet so close world, he explains, he shows, he forces you to look into the details, he insists on transmitting his passion to you, giving you this desire to know more... And everyone leaves a little more enlightened, more enriched in knowledge, and with nice surprises for some! Thank you and good luck, Mr. Guardian.

(Translated by Google) We came on a Friday afternoon. The place is magnificent, and the owner is exceptional! He gave us a very long explanation of all the printing techniques for over an hour, showing us all the pieces in his collection. Admission is free, and the pieces in the museum are for sale.

Super moment !

(Translated by Google) First escape game for me and my partner today. There were four of us in our group, including two experienced escape room players, but not experts. We played the asylum. It was great! The atmosphere, the setting, and the acting were all there. We sometimes had trouble remembering that it was just a game 🤣😅 We left with great memories and the desire to create more. We managed to finish the game with a little help at times, but we left proud of ourselves 😉😊 Thank you so much! I recommend it 🙌👌 (Original) Premier escape game pour moi et mon compagnon ce jour, nous étions 4 dans notre groupe avec 2 initiés mais pas expert. Nous avons fait l'asile. C'était super! L'ambiance, le décor, le jeu d'acteur étaient au rendez vous. Nous avions parfois du mal à nous souvenir que c'était seulement un jeu 🤣😅 Nous repartons avec de supers souvenirs et l'envie d'en faire d'autres. Nous avons réussi avec finir le jeu avec un peu d'aide parfois, mais nous sortons fière de nous 😉😊 Merci beaucoup! Je recommande 🙌👌

(Translated by Google) Hello, There were four of us in THE DESCENT room. The immersion is very well-crafted, the atmosphere is perfect, and the puzzles are truly enjoyable. But be careful with headlamps that aren't charged or that malfunction. In an increasingly dark atmosphere, this somewhat spoiled the end of the game because two of us, without light, couldn't do anything at all; we had to use our smartwatches to light up so as not to miss the clues. The Game Master followed us well and helped us, which was good in that respect. (Original) Bonjour Nous étions 4 personnes dans la salle de LA DESCENTE. l immersion est très bien ficelée, l ambiance est parfaite et les énigmes franchement sympathiques. Mais attention aux lampes frontales qui ne sont pas chargées ou qui dysfonctionnent. Dans une ambiance de plus en plus obscure cela a un peu gâché la fin du jeu car 2 d entre nous sans lumière ne pouvaient rien faire du tout, nous avons dû nous éclairer avec nos montres connectées pour ne pas louper les indices. La game Master nous a bien suivi et aidé c etait bien de ce côté là.

(Translated by Google) We came on November 23rd for two sessions: "Prey to Doubts" and "The Descent." Everything was fantastic: the difficulty of the puzzles, the set design, and the atmosphere—truly incredible! There were six of us for the first session and five for the second; it was perfect! We'll be back to try the two rooms we still have to discover! Go for it without hesitation! See you soon! 🥳 (Original) Venus le 23 Novembres pour 2 sessions, En Proie aux doutes et La descente. Tout était top, la difficulté des énigmes, le décor et l'ambiance, vraiment incroyable ! Nous sommes venus à 6 pour le 1er et 5 au 2ème, c'était vraiment l'idéal ! Nous reviendront faire les 2 salles qu'ils nous reste à découvrir ! Allez-y les yeux fermés ! A bientôt 🥳

(Translated by Google) We just completed the descent. The immersion was very difficult, difficult to get into the atmosphere from the start (the game master didn't seem very motivated to involve us in the story). The setting is pretty but quite dangerous at times; one of us came out with scratches, and also, be sure to wear clothes that don't stay put because we come out with rather dirty clothes 🤣 Regarding the story, there's no real connection between the puzzles and this story. So, in the end, this escape game is more of a series of puzzles without any real connection. (Original) Nous venons de faire la descente, L’immersion a été très difficile, difficile de se mettre dans l’ambiance dès le début (game master qui semblait pas très motivée à nous mettre dans l’histoire.) Le décor est joli mais assez dangereux par moment, un de nous ressort avec des éraflures et de plus prévoyez des vêtements qui ne tiennent pas car on en sort avec des vêtements plutôt sales 🤣 Concernant l’histoire il n’y a pas vraiment de lien entre les énigmes et cette histoire. Donc au final cette escape game est plutôt une successions d’énigmes sans vraiment de liens.

(Translated by Google) Room: The Asylum Absolutely incredible! The tiny price difference compared to a chain escape room is so worth it. The sets are amazing, as are the stories and puzzles, and the staff is super friendly. I can't recommend it enough; it was by far the best escape room I've ever done (I've played about ten). Thank you for a great time! (Original) Salle : l'asile Absolument incroyable, la toute petite différence de prix par rapport à un escape de "chaîne" vaut tellement le coup. Les décors sont top, l'histoire et les énigmes également, et le personnel est super sympathique. Je ne peux que recommander, c'était de loin le meilleur escape game que j'ai pu faire (j'en ai une dizaine à mon actif). Merci pour ce super moment !

A beautiful place

Excellent

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful place to discover! Superb buildings crossing an impressive central artery, all decorated with fountains and flower beds that will amaze you! (Original) Une très belle place à découvrir ! De superbes bâtiments traversée d’une artères centrale impressionnante, le tout agrémenté de fontaines et parterres de fleurs qui vous en mettent plein les yeux !

(Translated by Google) Pretty square. Very lively with bistros where you can enjoy good food depending on your mood. It's an ideal place to disperse if you want to visit the city of Tours. (Original) Jolie place. Très animée avec des bistrots où on peut déguster de bonnes choses en fonction de ses humeurs. C'est un point de dispersion idéal si on veut visiter la ville de Tours.

Lovely place

(Translated by Google) This square is not only an urban landmark, but also a true central nerve of Touraine life, where the city's main arteries intersect: Boulevard Béranger and Boulevard Heurteloup. These intersections divide Tours into four well-defined districts, making the square an indispensable landmark for tourists, shoppers, and residents. The area is full of cafes and shops, and don't miss the chance to sit on a nearby terrace and observe the flow of local life. With these two rainbows, it's even more beautiful. (Original) Essa praça não é apenas um ponto de referência urbano, mas também um verdadeiro nervo central da vida tourangina, onde se cruzam as principais artérias da cidade: o Boulevard Béranger e o Boulevard Heurteloup. Esses cruzamentos dividem Tours em quatro bairros bem definidos, tornando a praça um marco indispensável para turistas, compradores e moradores. A área é repleta de cafés, lojas e não perca a chance de sentar em um terraço próximo e observar o fluxo da vida local. Com esses dois arco-íris fica mais bonita ainda.

(Translated by Google) Hello, this well-decorated tree was beautiful and the illuminations next to the water jets, Santa Claus is missing (Original) Bonjour qui etait beau ce sapin bien décorée et les illuminations aupres des jets d.eau il manquer le Père Noël

Great interior and exterior. I love those paintings on the ceiling and the balcony of the theater looks grand painted in gold.

Beautiful old theatre hosting phenomenal operah and symphonic orchestra performances, among others. Be sure to arrive early, and if you're 26 or under, you can get discounted last minute tickets for 7€ to most performances - in any available seat - half an hour before the show. A must visit to better understand the culture of the region, especially if you're studying abroad! Be sure to also check out the bar with the large beautiful painting ceiling.

Beautiful theatre, that unfortunately doesn't pay their orchestra. They went on strike 20mins before the performance, and the theatre wouldn't refund tickets. Solidarity with the musicians.

O my I was in the back right under the balconies like the 10 rows before me. Terrible experience, couldn't see anything and the doors kept being opened whereas during an opera show everything is maintained quiet. People arrived late - forbidden in opera when the show has started - and the people talked really loud because.they couldn't see where their seats were. I left at the intermission PS the seat was NOT cheap

Beautiful medium sized opera house, very well located. Unfortunately, the maintenance of the building isn't fantastic. They offer very low priced events all year long. Not snobbish at all, a good place to enjoy plays and concerts.

Visited today as it was an open day. Very popular often booked solid. A must do ?

Great performance, international ensemble, a lovely evening.

A Grey rainy day in January is perhaps not the best timing. Mud, mud, mud. No leaves, birds, or people. Very few signs and easy to get lost if not having a smartphone. Tell me this is not a forrest by French standards?

(Translated by Google) I have been walking in this forest for many years, I love this place. There are benches, paths for beautiful walks, bumps for children on bikes. (Original) Je me promène depuis de nombreuses années dans cette forêt,j'adore cet endroit. Il y a des bancs ,des allées pour de belles balades, des bosses pour les enfants en vélos.

Really magical. Frédéric was giving a wonderful recital of great Queen’s tunes. With all those candles around him, it was just beautiful.

Quaint, small church to walk through. Nothing extraordinary, but very peaceful.

An absolutely beautiful building unfortunately squished between other buildings which don't allow for a view from afar. The façade is stunning. Inside, the high vaulted ceiling, pillars, statuary, painting are fabulous.

IN-CRO-YABLE !!

Concert candlelight

Super moment...😍

(Translated by Google) I found this church intriguing with its unusual, almost square plan, no transept, and unfortunately no information to satisfy my desire to learn more. No plan either, even though it deserves it. The same goes for the diversity of the stained-glass windows, which are clearly not all from the same period. Otherwise, it's rather lovely. (Original) J'ai trouvé cette église intrigante avec son plan presque carré pas ordinaire, sans transept et malheureusement aucune info pouvant satisfaire mon envie d'en apprendre plus. Aucun plan non plus alors que cela le mériterai. Pareil pour la diversité des vitraux qui ne sont clairement pas tous de la même époque. Sinon elle est plutôt mignonne.

Bountiful, quite, clean place to walk. No bathrooms, plan ahead

(Translated by Google) Very friendly, adds a little extra to a walk in the forest. There are a few tables to sit and picnic. (Original) Très sympathique, ajoute un petit plus à une balade en forêt. Il y a quelques tables pour se poser, pique-niquer.

(Translated by Google) A very pleasant park I love coming for a walk and with the new closed enclosures the dogs can let off steam in complete safety (Original) Un parc très agréable j'adore venir me balader en plus avec les nouveaux enclos fermés les chiens peuvent se défouler en toute sécurité

(Translated by Google) Places emptied of animals!! Good decision for the animals but this should be indicated on the city's websites!!! There are only a few goats left. Otherwise the paths are poorly maintained. But the wood is nice for walks. (Original) Lieux vidé de ses animaux !! Bonne décision pour les animaux mais cela devrait être indiqué sur les sites internet de la ville !!! Il ne reste que quelques chèvres. Sinon les allées sont mal entretenu. Mais le bois est sympa pour les promenades.

(Translated by Google) Why is it labeled an animal park? There is no animal park because there are no more animals! It would be good if the city removed this label to avoid a 40-minute drive for nothing and very disappointed children, as well as parents! In addition, the site is clearly abandoned, only mosquitoes remain there! (Original) Pourquoi est ce indiqué parc animalier ? Il n y a pas de parc animalier puisque il n y a plus d animaux! Il serait bien que la ville supprime cette mention pour éviter 40 min de voiture pour rien et des enfants très déçus, comme les parents d ailleurs ! De plus, le site est clairement abandonné, seuls les moustiques demeurent sur place!

(Translated by Google) Very nice park to do with the family, with lots of animals to see. (Original) Parc très sympa à faire en famille, avec tout plein d'animaux à voir.

(Translated by Google) Very disappointed there are no more animals in this park it is not specified be careful when you go there it is really for a walk in the forest picnic and nothing else (Original) Beaucoup déçu il n'y a plus d'animaux dans ce parc ce n'est pas précisé faites bien attention quand vous y allez c'est vraiment pour faire une balade en forêt pique-n***** et rien d'autre

We enjoyed seeing this 11th-century medieval Basilica St. Martin vestige which remained after the original church was demolished during the French Revolution. It is 50-metres tall with a Gothic style exterior and makes for a nice complementary visit to the present day Basilica St. Martin. There is brief history available on an information panel (French & English) next to the structure which is a National Monument and worth a few minutes to view if you plan to include Basilica St. Martin during your sightseeing around Tours.

(Translated by Google) Clock Tower (Tour de l'Horloge) The clock tower is an important symbol of old Tours, which recalls the medieval history of the city. Story • The tower was part of the city's fortifications and served as a clock tower in the Middle Ages. • Today it is surrounded by the cozy streets of the historical center. Peculiarities • Gothic architecture with elegant details. • The clock on the tower continues to work, maintaining a connection with the past. • The tower often becomes the object of attention of tourists and photographers. (Original) Часовая башня (Tour de l’Horloge) Часовая башня — это важный символ старого Тура, который напоминает о средневековой истории города. История • Башня была частью городских укреплений и служила часовой башней в Средние века. • Сегодня она окружена уютными улицами исторического центра. Особенности • Готическая архитектура с изящными деталями. • Часы на башне продолжают работать, сохраняя связь с прошлым. • Башня часто становится объектом внимания туристов и фотографов.

(Translated by Google) Impressive and imposing rest of what was the largest basilica in Europe. Even larger and more majestic than Notre Dame, it saddens my heart to know that it was destroyed and partly voluntarily demolished because the renovation was not sustainable. This tower is what remains of it together with other remains that can be seen in the photos. The information panels arranged nearby explain very well, including photos, what it was like and the various vicissitudes. A visit is recommended. (Original) Impressionante ed imponente resto di quella che era la basilica più grande d'Europa. Più grande e maestosa anche di Notre Dame, piange il cuore sapere che è stata distrutta ed in parte volontariamente demolita perché non era sostenibile il rifacimento. Questa torre è ciò che ne rimane assieme ad altri resti che si vedono nelle foto. I pannelli informativi disposti a ridosso spiegano molto bene con anche delle foto com'era e le varie vicissitudini. Consigliata la visita.

I have been told that the place in haunted but not sure if that's true we went to visit Chateau De La Branchoire today. But it was closed even though it said it would be open at two. I took these photos from outside the gate. The experience would be a lot better if I could get in and the sun was shining.

This is a small public garden to the east of Musée des Beaux-Arts that was built for residents in the early 19th-century in the manner of city parks springing up in other French cities at the time. Within, I enjoyed the short paved walking path, park benches, mature trees, shrubs, old fountain pools as well as a stone statue of 15th-century French sculptor Michel Colombe. Potentially worth a quick walk through if in the area and interested.

It is a small park you can rest a moment. You can see the view of Saint-Gatien Cathedral.

A nice small garden with a little fountain that soothes the mind

very cozy

Magic it's the only word came in my mind

(Translated by Google) Architectural relic stuck on a small square with benches on which it is nice to relax. (Original) Vestige architectural coincé sur une petite place pourvue de banc sur lesquels il fait bon se poser au calme.

Very good place to walk around and to sit when it is sunny with different views of the river and well-maintained paths along the river banks as well as the park itself. It is a bit of a pull, though, to walk from the town centre, but a rewarding glass of beer could be adequate compensation.

Wild large place. Good for a walk or a jog. Animals in the middle for your kids (cattle, donkeys...). Not so happy animals it seems.

Peaceful Island park with plenty of walking paths

I love it

Pretty cool for a run

I love it

Solemn place to stroll.

(Translated by Google) There are places for sports. You can run along the paths. There are benches where you can relax. The paths are covered with fine gravel. I was here in January. The weather was damp and windy. If in the city, due to the density of buildings, the wind is not felt, then in open areas it is very sensitive. I didn't see any toilets nearby. (Original) Есть места для спорта. По тропинкам можно бегать. Есть лавочки, где можно отдохнуть. Тропинки покрыты мелким гравием. Я была здесь в январе. Погода была сырая и ветренная. Если в городе за счет плотности зданий ветер не ощущается, то на открытой местности - весьма чувствительно. Туалетов по близости не видела.

(Translated by Google) I came to apply for a passport renewal and had all the necessary documents. They asked me for my old passport. I explained that it wasn't mandatory because my old passport had expired more than five years ago. It's written on the public service website that you only need to bring it if the expiration date is LESS than five years. They told me this was false, without verifying or taking my objections into account, and they offered me an appointment three days later. I explained that I had taken the day off specifically and asked if there was a slot that afternoon. They told me no, it was very busy. I left the town hall and saw two slots available that same afternoon on the website... However, I was very well received for the second appointment, and apparently for new passports, the procedures are stricter, hence the request to bring my old passport in the morning. It would have helped to have clearer explanations from the morning, and for each town hall to standardize its practices. (Original) Venue pour une demande de renouvellement de passeport j'avais tous les documents. On me demande mon ancien passeport. J'explique que ce n'est pas obligatoire car mon ancien passeport est expiré depuis plus de 5 ans, c'est écrit sur le site du service public qu'il ne faut l'amener que quand la date d'expiration est de MOINS de 5 ans. On me dit que c'est faux, sans vérifier ni tenir compte de mes objections, et on me propose un rdv trois jours plus tard. J'explique que j'ai posé ma journée exprès et demande s'il y a un créneau cet après-midi, on me dit que non c'est très chargé. Je sors de la mairie et je vois sur le site deux créneaux disponibles dans l'après-midi même... J'ai par contre été très bien reçue pour le second rdv et apparemment pour les nouveaux passeports les procédures sont durcies d'où la demande de ramener mon ancien passeport le matin. Cela aurait aidé d'avoir des explications plus claire dès le matin, et que chaque mairie uniformise ses pratiques.

(Translated by Google) A large green area, for walks, picnics and other activities of course and a large play area for children, it's really good (Original) Une grande surface verte,pour des balades, pique nique et d autre activité bien sûr et grande surface de jeux pour les enfants,c vraiment on est bien

A few animals in a small enclosure. Tennis court, you can play ball, go jogging or cycle. We're having a great time... (Original) Immense parc ou l'on peux venir en famille, entre amis ou seuls pour bien relaxer. Petit jardin avec jeux pour enfants.

(Translated by Google) If it weren't for dog owners who come to defecate their pets without picking up, this would be a nice place. And what about the motorists who take the surrounding streets for a Formula 1 circuit and regularly run over cats and other hedgehogs which must certainly be in their way. (Original) S'il n'y avait pas les propriétaires de chiens qui viennent faire déféquer leur animal sans ramasser, ce serait un bel endroit. Et que dire des automobilistes qui prennent les rues autour pour un circuit de formule 1 et écrasent régulièrement chats et autres hérissons qui doivent certainement les gêner.

(Translated by Google) Hello, I would like to encourage you to turn off your storefront as soon as it closes, in order to save energy. Indeed, we are currently going through an energy and climate crisis, and it is important to limit our energy consumption. In addition, the law on night lighting was strengthened in October 2022: you risk a fine of €7,500 if you do not apply it. I am convinced that this will be beneficial for everyone: your customers will appreciate this effort in favor of sustainable development, and you will save money. Thank you in advance for your action! (Original) Bonjour, Je souhaite vous inciter à éteindre votre devanture dès la fermeture, afin de faire des économies d'énergie. En effet, nous traversons actuellement une crise énergétique et climatique, et il est important de limiter notre consommation d'énergie.

Je suis convaincue que cela sera bénéfique pour tout le monde : vos clients apprécieront cet effort en faveur du développement durable, et vous ferez des économies. Merci d'avance pour votre action !
