April 5, 2024,🇫🇷 Angoulême, die Comicstadt
Angoulême is known as the French comics capital and a city of art and history. Angoulême invites you to discover its upper town, surrounded by ramparts, which overlooks the Charente river from its hill, and to discover the many comics murals. The tourist information office in the town hall has a nice city map with all the locations.
