Café "Bien Être"

Highlight • Cafe

In Montsoreau on the road towards Turquant there is a small oasis: here you can drink coffee in the seating area of your choice in the courtyard, eat homemade cakes and forget the world for a while. The owner is very friendly and it is important to her that you feel comfortable. In the atelier you can buy some nice things. So: definitely stop by...😊

Montsoreau Castle

Highlight • Castle

The Château de Montsoreau has been immortalized many times, notably by Alexandre Dumas in his novel La Dame de Monsoreau, written between 1845 and 1846.

Above all, since 2016 Montsoreau has been a Museum of Contemporary Art with the world's largest collection of works from the Art and Language movement. It is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Montsoreau Village and Castle

Highlight • Settlement

Montsoreau is a small town of 400 inhabitants located on the left bank of the Loire, at the confluence of the latter and the Vienne.

With an irresistible charm, Montsoreau responds par excellence to the cities of the Loire: calm, serenity, good living. You will not be disappointed by this discovery!
