The waters of the Indre slip quietly through Beaulieu-lès-Loches, reflecting old stone houses that seem to lean gently towards the riverbanks. Founded around a powerful abbey in the 11th century, Beaulieu developed separately from neighbouring Loches despite centuries of shared history.
This view over one of the smaller channels of the Indre captures the calmer side of the town, where water once powered mills and shaped daily life. On bright spring days like this, the reflections and pale tuffeau stone give Beaulieu much of its quiet charm.
“Some towns in Touraine speak softly — Beaulieu-lès-Loches is one of them.”
