Even by the glacial speed of construction in the middle ages, Tours Cathedral took a long time to be completed. Building began in 1170 and wouldn’t be finished until 1547, but this means we’re met with a perfect summary of the evolution of gothic art. The ensemble of original 13th-century stained glass windows in the ambulatory chapels and above th...
The riches from Cardinal Richelieu’s 17th-century campaign against the Huguenots and the art seized from abbeys during the Revolution all ended up at Tours’ stellar museum of fine art. Because of their religious source there’s a good body of Italian gothic primitives from the 14th and 15th centuries, while the two renaissance paintings by Andrea Me...
The city’s municipal garden has a bit of a troublesome setting, between the Loire and Cher, which made it susceptible to flooding in the past, with two devastating inundations in the mid-19th century that filled the greenhouses with two metres of water. Even after being hit by bombs in the Second World War there isn’t the slightest hint of a troubl...
Like all the best historic city centres the historic buildings on the pedestrian streets around Place Plumereau aren’t sterile museum pieces but vibrant cornerstones of local life, used as shops, restaurants and bars. Place de Plumereau is at the nerve centre of one of the largest conservation areas in Europe, with renaissance mansions boasting scu...
In the 16th-century Dormitory at the former Abbey of Saint-Julien is a museum devoted to a French workers’ movement that dates back to medieval times. Roughly, the Compagnons du Tour de France is like a guild of journeymen that preserves historic trades and educates young people about them as part of an apprenticeship. To complete the apprenticeshi...
What may be the most beautiful of Tours’ many old building has just come through a long restoration and is open to the public once more. Hôtel Goüin is an early-renaissance palace on Rue du Commerce, with a balustraded porch and the sort of loggia in which you might expect to see Juliet calling for Romeo. During the restoration they unearthed fragm...
Billed as the “Belly of Tours” (ventre de Tours), the city’s indoor market may not be France’s largest, but it’s a gastronome’s idea of heaven. You may even want to bring your camera or have your phone at the ready, because the cheese, charcuterie, seafood and in-season fruit and vegetable counters are presented with real flair. If you’re stuck for...
During the French Second Empire from the mid-1800s English-style parks like this one popped up in provincial cities across France. This was a spot for urban families to take promenades, kids to play and for the city to put on outdoor concerts at the park’s gazebo. There’s less of the formality of French parterres, as paths weave through tulip flowe...
The predecessors of this 12th-century abbey were wrecked by the Normans in the 9th century and then in a war between the feudal houses of Blois and Anjou in the 10th century. But miraculously the building that followed has survived everything from the French Revolution to the Second World War. It was part of a long-gone abbey, and the garden next t...
Commercial craft floated along the Loire and Cher since antiquity, hauling people, wine, silk, lumber, salt and all sorts of other cargo up and down these rivers. Because the waterways can get very shallow they used flat-bottomed sailboats called “toues”, and you can too! Toues can carry between 12 and 30 passengers for hour-long trips, or even rom...
