Activity itinerary

Bourges (Pass by)

As you walk down Bourbonnoux Street, let me tell you about an iconic character in the city.

13 Rue Bourbonnoux (Pass by)

Stop here for a moment and turn to the right to observe the last building you just passed.

Hotel Lallemant (Pass by)

On your left, behind the gates, hides an old Inn, the Inn Lallemant. Today it houses the fascinating Museum of Decorative Arts.

Place Gordaine (Pass by)

Here you are on the seductive Place Gordaine which, with its wooden half-timbered houses, crowded terraces and shops of all kinds, is one of the liveliest and most picturesque places in Bourges!

Eglise Saint-Bonnet (Pass by)

We arrive here at the edge of the historic centre of Bourges. Opposite you stands the church of Saint-Bonnet, a religious building that was built in the 13th century.

12 Hle Saint-Bonnet (Pass by)

On your left you can see the Saint-Bonnet Halls, a large historic Covered Point of Sale.

Rue Mirebeau (Pass by)

Connecting Place Gordaine to Place de la Barre, Rue Mirebeau is one of Bourges’ main shopping streets.

Rue Mirebeau (Pass by)

The small passage on your right leads to the so-called Calvin space, which corresponds to the former Augustinian convent that was settled there from the 13th century.

Rue Coursarlon (Pass by)

Here you are in one of the busiest streets in the capital of Berry, but also one of the oldest.

Hôtel des Échevins de Bourges (Pass by)

This Inn was built in the 15th century to become the Bourges Town Inn, just after the Great Burgundy Fire that devastated the city in 1487.

Place Cujas (Pass by)

This magnificent building, which boasts architecture typical of the First French Renaissance, was built in the 16th century.

Palais Jacques-Coeur (Pass by)

Second monument after the cathedral, this magnificent palace takes us in the footsteps of Jacques Coeur, merchant, adventurer and, above all, Grand Argentier of King Charles VII from 1439.

29 Rue Moyenne (Pass by)

Look at the imposing building on your left. This is the Inn des Postes.

Bourges (Pass by)

I take advantage of this moment when you go up the Rue Moyenne to talk to you about one of the best known features of Bourges: its music festival.

Rue de Séraucourt (Pass by)

Built between 1936 and 1938, this beautiful building designed in light red bricks was destined to become a party room.

Le Jardin de l'Archeveche (Pass by)

Here you are in the garden of the Archdiocese, one of the busiest gardens in Bourges.

Marais des Prébendes (Pass by)

Stunning, isn’t it? This is certainly the most beautiful view you can have in Bourges

Place Etienne Dolet (Pass by)

This building facing the cathedral is none other than the Museum of the Best Workers of France, housed in the old archbishop’s palace dating from the 17th century.

Cathedrale De Bourges (Pass by)

A true emblem of the city of Bourges, the Cathedral of Saint-Étienne has something to amaze visitors who come to discover it!

Grange Aux Dimes (Pass by)

A vestigial of the Middle Ages, the Tithe Barn bears his name. It was used, from the 13th century, to store the royalties given by the peasants, called the tithe.

Rue Bourbonnoux (Pass by)

Here you are in the old shopping street of Bourges, where, in medieval times, the inhabitants came to buy all kinds of things from the artisans, traders and merchants of the city.

Promenade des remparts (Pass by)

This small passage, located in the heart of the houses of the area, allows you to take a real leap into the past and return to the Gallo-Roman era, when the city of Bourges was called Avaricum.
