Description

Experience a charming Renaissance village lifted directly from the pages of a French fairy tale on this guided walking tour with time on your own. Enjoy a scenic drive to Locronan, nestled at the foot of a hill and considered one of the most beautiful hamlets in France. Stroll stone-paved streets lined with impossibly quaint Renaissance-era buildings and learn that the town experienced a golden age as a manufacturer of sail cloth fashioned from the hemp grown in the surrounding fields. During your approximately 75-minute walking tour, discover sights including marvelous Saint-Ronan Church and the Penity Chapel, which together form a harmonious whole, and a splendid well adorning the town’s main square. You’ll admire the 15th-century church’s unity of style and stone vaulting as well as its luminous stained glass windows depicting scenes from Christ’s Passion. Relish time at your leisure to continue your exploration of this picturesque village, perhaps selecting a handicraft from one of the workshops where artisans ply their trade as they have for centuries.
