The most striking feature of this charming medieval town is its mighty three towered chateau that dominates and reflects in the banks of the Oust. Within the Castle stables is housed the Musee des Poupees (famous doll museum) containing 600 dolls within a collection started in 1880 by the Rohan family.
There are several streets lined with 16th and 17th century housing, and one of the best preserved houses the excellent Toursit Information Office. There is a fine selction of restaurants and pavement cafes where you can relax around the square and watch the world go by.
Key dates are, Medieval Festival on Bastille day (July the 14th), and Pardon on the 8th of September. In summer you can climb the church tower for stunning views of the Chateau, town and wider countryside. There is a lively Saturday Market.
