On the streets of Touraine...Rue Saint-Celerin in Monrichard.

A quiet, cobbled lane in the heart of Montrichard, Rue Saint‑Célerin offers a slice of old-world charm you won't find in the guidebooks. Once home to a 12th-century chapel and now the setting for cozy outdoor cafés, this narrow passage captures the soul of the Loire Valley, stone walls bathed in sunlight, ivy creeping up centuries-old facades, and the gentle clink of cutlery from lunching locals.

Whether you're stopping for a wood-fired pizza or simply soaking in the atmosphere, it's easy to feel like time slows down here. In a town steeped in medieval history, Rue Saint‑Célerin is a quiet reminder that the past is never far away.
