Gien is a beautiful town - we felt very comfortable there. There are plenty of restaurants and lots to see.

This beautiful Loire town is located at the gateway to Sologne, the Orléans forest and Burgundy. Gien is known throughout the world for its earthenware, a symbol of French know-how for 200 years. This is also where we find the first castle of the Loire on the course of the royal river. Built at the end of the 15th century, it dominates the city with its high brick walls.

JEANNE d'ARC, known in German-speaking countries as "JOHANNA von ORLEANS", (1412? to 1431) was an important person in the history of France at the time of the so-called 100 Years' War between the kingdoms of England and France. After her capture, she was condemned as a heretic (at the instigation of the English) and burned, but two and a half decades later (at the instigation of the French) this sentence was overturned. She is the patroness of France. The music group OMD (Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark) dedicated a song to her in the early 1980s: "Maid of Orleans".

Nestled between Sologne, the national forest of Orléans and Burgundy, Gien is a must for hikers who walk along the Loire. Full of surprises, this small town is renowned for its earthenware, its castle and its excellent wines. Its dynamic city center invites you to relax. Do not hesitate to extend your stay in this city to discover all its secrets. To the north of the conurbation, the railway station is served daily by trains from Paris or Nevers.

This railway viaduct was built between 1877 and 1880. Since 2011, no more railway traffic uses the bridge. Transformation works started in 2019 and, since May 2020, the bridge has been dedicated to bicycles and pedestrians. Thanks to the works, everyone can cross the Loire between Saint-Père-sur-Loire and Sully-sur-Loire in complete safety. Take your time to enjoy the magnificent views of the Château de Sully and the Loire!
