    Hiking

    The 15th-century Porte de Champagne is the only remaining city gate in Levroux. Originally built with the permission of King Charles VII to fortify the town, it still marks the transition between the old and newer parts of the city.

    During the recent restoration, the gate regained its towers and roofs, giving you a good impression of how imposing the entrance to Levroux once was. A true eye-catcher and a reminder of the town's medieval character.

    Hiking

    Around the 1400s, Levroux suffered attacks and acts of terror from local brigands. King Charles VII therefore authorized the city to fortify its perimeter. Sixteen towers, adjoining walls and a moat were built, of which the Porte de Champagne is all that remains today.
