Almost no one knows that… Under the Château de Saint-Florent-sur-Cher lie remnants of a much older defense and trading network along the Cher River, dating back to before the current castle. The site was already important before the castle. Even before the 13th century, a strategic crossing over the Cher River existed here. Not a bridge like today, but a ford and later a primitive crossing. So the château wasn't built "just like that." It literally stands on an old thoroughfare.

Good place for fishing, a clean river, plenty of pikes & perch. Anglers would love this river 😍

You have to visit Saturday farmer Market, it has amazing products.

It's a nice little town but not much to do except if you are looking for peace and quiet .
