Blois (Loir-et-Cher, France)
Blois stretches along the Loire, in the heart of a region between vineyards and châteaux. A city of history, it preserves a rich heritage visible on every street corner. Its skyline is dominated by the Château Royal de Blois, an anchor of the town and a reflection of the great days of the Renaissance. Walks, festivals and museums give the city a sustained cultural life throughout the year.
Heritage and history
The Château Royal de Blois showcases several architectural styles, from Gothic to Classical, and tells the story of the kings of France. Nearby, the Cathédrale Saint-Louis and the townhouses of the historic center testify to the city's prosperity in the 16th–17th centuries. The layout of the old streets invites discovery, between staircases and small squares.
Culture and museums
Blois is home to the Maison de la Magie Robert-Houdin, unique of its kind, and the musée des Beaux-Arts which brings together paintings and regional objects. Every autumn, Les Rendez-vous de l'Histoire attract researchers and the general public for lectures and debates. The cultural program remains lively and varied.
Nature and landscapes
The quays of the Loire offer peaceful walks and viewpoints over the river. Nearby, the vineyards of Cheverny and Cour-Cheverny structure the landscape and offer wine-tourism excursions. Urban green spaces allow you to breathe between visits.
Gastronomy and wines
Blois cuisine highlights products of the Loire Valley: river fish, local cheeses and charcuterie. The appellations Cheverny and Cour-Cheverny are easy to access for tastings at the region's winemakers.
