St. Symphorien Church originally stood outside the city walls. This meant that in the event of war or unrest, it was one of the first places to be hit. Therefore: – extra thick walls – small, high windows – simple construction So it wasn't built "simply," it was designed for defense. More of a shelter than a showpiece church.

Did you know this about the Pont Wilson? The Pont Wilson has a hidden story. In 1978, part of the bridge unexpectedly collapsed. Not due to a flood, but because the Loire had eroded the subsoil. Afterward, the bridge was reinforced from within. Yes, really: sections are hollow and contain inspection chambers.

This church in Tours stands out from many others with the same patronage because it houses the mortal remains of Saint Martin. While he is not an apostle, like those buried in the important churches of Rome (St. Peter's Basilica and St. Paul Outside the Walls) or Santiago de Compostela, and still venerated today, he, too, takes us far back to the beginnings of Christianity, to the fourth century. Along with Saint Nicholas (Bishop of Myra), Saint Martin is probably one of the most popular saints of all time. The feast day of the former officer in the Roman army is November 11th. On the night after the famous "cloak sharing," when he gave half his army cloak to a freezing beggar, Jesus Christ appeared to him in a dream. He then converted to Christianity and was later elected Bishop of Tours—initially against his will. His grave church is here, where, in addition to the major memorial day, an additional holiday is celebrated: every year on July 4th, his episcopal consecration and the transfer of his remains are commemorated.
