Saint John's Baptistery

Highlight • Other

Of art historical importance are the early Christian baptistery of St. Jean (in the core 6th century with possibly older predecessors), one of the oldest preserved religious buildings in France. The date of origin of the baptismal site at the later Baptistery Saint-Jean, originally set up in a Roman house, is dated to new investigations and dendrochronological data as early as the 5th century. The first construction phase with the rectangular room of today's baptistery could belong to the appearance of the plant to the 6th century.

View of the Abbaye Saint-Junien de Nouaillé-Maupertuis

Highlight • Religious Site

This medieval building, surrounded by walls and gardens, stands majestically in the heart of a charming village. From the surrounding paths, the view of the abbey reveals its slate roofs and stone walls. The setting is bucolic, with the river and the surrounding meadows.

Poitiers

Highlight • Settlement

Poitiers benefits from the City and Country of Art and History label and in the hyper-centre, the "plateau", a short walk allows you to discover the typical half-timbered and half-timbered houses, the Palace of the Counts of Poitou and the majestic Notre-Dame-la-Grande. It is the starting point for many very nice itineraries!
