Tucked in the heart of Vieux Tours, Rue de la Rôtisserie is a charming street in a quiet stretch of Tours where the medieval street plan still guides your steps, the city’s past feels close enough to touch and still whispers its delicious past.
Its name apparently comes straight from the medieval rotisseries that once lined it as part of a bustling poultry market, you imagine the irresistible aroma of spit-roasted poultry wafting through the air!
Even today, the street feels like a living slice of history with its cozy restaurants and preserved facades.
Close by Place Plumereau invites you to linger with a coffee or a glass of wine amid the half-timbered surrounding houses.
“The streets here don’t hurry. They simply invite you to walk, to notice, to belong.”

Each Saturday, we stroll through the lanes and cobbles of Loire towns and villages — places where every step feels like a story.
