Notre-Dame of Argenton-sur-Creuse

Highlight • Other

Towering over Argenton-sur-Creuse is the gilded statue of the Bonne Dame, a beacon visible from afar. What few people know is that this six-meter-high statue was dragged from the train station to the chapel in 1899 by ten oxen and thirteen horses, to the loud applause of the town's inhabitants. Today, you can hike up the hill yourself and be rewarded with a panoramic view of the Creuse valley—with the Bonne Dame still standing guard over the town.

Argenton-sur-Creuse

Highlight • Other

Argenton is revealed through old streets, old wheel mills, houses with wooden galleries as if suspended above the river. From the Esplanade de la Bonne Dame, a superb panorama emerges which stretches towards the green hills of the Creuse valley, an ideal setting for a weekend of cycling alone or with friends.
