    Located on a promontory on the left bank of the Loire, the old town dominates the river, giving it a remarkable view of the valley and the surrounding area.

    Several curiosities are worth a detour:
    The abbey church of Saint-Florent-le-Vieil, located on a height overlooking the Loire. You can see the tomb of Bonchamps, general of the Vendée uprising, sculpted by the very republican David d'Angers whose father had been pardoned by Bonchamps;

    behind the church, one can access through a narrow passage to a playground for sandballs;

    Cathelineau chapel;

    cemetery chapel;

    column of the Duchess of Angoulême;

    cable-stayed bridge of Saint-Florent-le-Vieil;

    house of writers Julien Gracq

      The climb to the abbey is tough but just for this panorama you will not regret your effort.

        Pretty village with a magnificent view of the Loire. Make the detour during your journey on the Loire à Vélo.
