Come visit Beaugency

One of the “Most beautiful detours of France”

Beaugency is a remarkable medieval town, thanks to its location on the banks of the Loire and its well-preserved historic monuments.

A Johannine town with a fascinating history, rich in architectural heritage and a wealth of details adorning the Renaissance facades of its buildings, crossed by the river Ru, which flows peacefully towards the Loire, Beaugency is an ideal place to stroll and wander.

From the banks of the Loire or the Grand Mail, stroll along the narrow streets lined with beautiful Tuffeau stone houses to the château, stroll along the banks of the Loire, pass under the Tour du Change, then enjoy the square in front of the Hôtel de Ville. On your way to the medieval castrum, you can admire the Tour César, a thousand-year-old keep; look up at the Tour St Firmin and contemplate the contemporary stained-glass windows of the abbey church.

Come and enjoy a surprisingly pleasant day out in this thousand-year-old city.
And continue your visit with the “Rêves Chromatiques” exhibition and a tour of the Castrum, including access to the interior of the Caesar tower.
