    Hiking

    The bridge at Le Rosiers-sur-Loire has a turbulent historical background. For WWII enthusiasts, there is an information panel on the bank.
    Brief historical facts:
    At the end of May, beginning of June, German troops reach Les Rosiers. On 19 June, the battle for the bridge begins. A fierce battle between the two armies follows for two days. The bridges of Rosiers and Gennes are blown up. On 20 June, French resistance breaks. Fifteen of the 325 French cadets were killed and buried in the shadow of the Saint-Eusèbe church in Gennes.
    You can read the full story on the bank.
