20의 라우잔가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Sauveterre-de-Guyenne is a bastide. A bastide is a type of French medieval town, founded in the 13th and 14th centuries, primarily in southwestern France. A bastide is characterized by a rectangular street pattern that divides the town into eight blocks around a central market square. The Treaty of Paris (1229) prohibited the building of walls around new towns. Many bastides were provided with some form of fortification, such as gates, after their founding to provide some protection during turbulent times. Most bastides had only local significance and did not develop into large towns. As a result, many bastides, such as that of Sauveterre-de-Guyenne, have been preserved in their original state.

Between Branne and Saint-Émilion, it is on this particularly peaceful road that you can best appreciate the charm of the journey, only frequented by the rare inhabitants of this alluvial space.

Pretty village in the center of Entre-Deux-Mers - Medieval bastide with ramparts all around, some pretty gates and a central square which is worth a stop...

Very well developed cycle path and easy to ride.

Very nice railway cycle path.

Great bike ride from Bordeaux. We had planned overnight accommodation in Saint Brice, in a large tent made available for participation. Ecological solar shower toilets. It is located in the chestnut grove (Google Maps). No reservations, just ask on the spot.

The Sauve train station is also worth seeing. Information about the railway line, old water crane, barriers and the parked railway carriages, some still need to be restored. The railway cycle path is great at this point.

Small quiet road, far from the road traffic along the Dordogne. Idyllic.
