Vouvant

          Today will be about the city called Vouvant. It is the only fortified city of Vendée still preserved. Immediately, as long as I remember - this is another city from which I do not have photos in the family archive, because they are "lost", so I will upload photos from the Internet, or Wikipedia, depending on which photos will be nicer 😉
          I don't have much to write about this city and describe what I saw, because the photos I will add will show you how beautiful this place is. I don't have much to describe, because I visited this place with my family by accident looking for a zoo in the town next door - Mervent, which I will tell you in the next post.
I present you the Melusine Tower
This tower is very high, because it is up to 45 meters high, and for those who are not afraid of heights you can enter and admire the spreading views of the entire city and even the cities neighboring the borders of Vouvant.

Here is a bridge from the Middle Ages, also called the Roman bridge

Church of Vouvant - His Portal - The nave Théodelin
Is this not a beautiful church?
It is a church classified as historical monument. The portal above the door dates back to the 11th century.

Being in Vouvant you can also visit the atypical garden, the so-called The Garden of Senses, which consists of beds of various plants. I know that I have already shown a similar garden in the post about Fontenay-le-Comte, but I personally like my mother very much captivate such places, so I would not be myself if I did not show you how it looks in the pictures:

          I think that I briefly described you Vouvant and thus I encouraged you to visit it in the future. In addition to monuments, places to visit, the city often organizes many cultural and entertainment events for both residents and tourists. I recommend it to you ! 🙏
