The Angers castle

The city of Angers, a beautiful blend of urban charm and natural wonder, is a must-visit destination for any tourist. Its main attraction, Château d'Angers, is a grand fortress that dominates the city skyline, offering an enchanting journey through the annals of time.

Historical Significance

Constructed in 1230 by Saint Louis, the chateau has parts dating back to the 10th and 11th centuries. Between the 14th and 15th centuries, the castle took on a distinct military role before transforming into an administrative hub. In the Middle Ages, the castle, which stood 40 meters high, evolved into a formidable defensive structure. The chateau's interior underwent numerous transformations, with the exception of the Great Hall. Louis II and King René are credited as the primary builders of the royal residence, the chapel, and the chatelet. Also known as the Castle of the Dukes of Anjou or the Castle of King René, it has been a historical monument since 1875.

Notable Features of Château d'Angers

A visit to the Château d'Angers provides a wealth of sights. Discover the moat gardens, the Royal Lodge, the King René Gallery, and the Chapel of Saint John the Baptist and Saint Laud.

The Saint-Maurice Cathedral of Angers

Located in the city of Angers, the capital of the former province of Anjou and part of the Maine-et-Loire department, is the St. Maurice Cathedral, an exquisite French landmark. Poised atop the Saint-Maurice staircase, this cathedral church belongs to the diocese of Maine-et-Loire, specifically, Angers.

A Journey Through History

Constructed between the 12th and 15th centuries, the St. Maurice Cathedral has weathered numerous restorations and transformations, evolving into the masterpiece we see today. Initially, it served as the first church in Angers and embodied the Angevin Plantagenet Gothic style. It was initially dedicated to the Virgin Mary but suffered multiple fires, especially in the 12th century.

Bishop Geoffroy de Tours took it upon himself to oversee the reconstruction. Other sections of the cathedral were gradually rebuilt over time. Notably, in the 15th century, it received a splendid gift – the tapestry of Apocalypse. The cathedral owes its grandeur to Bishops Guillaume de Beaumont and Normand de Doué, and it underwent extensive restoration between 1870-1914 and post-World War II.

The Splendors of St. Maurice Cathedral

From the outside, the cathedral offers a panoramic view of Maine, while the inside mesmerizes visitors with its distinct Angevin Gothic style and diverse domed vaults. The medieval stained glass casts a magical play of light, and the intricate veins stretching from the nave to the choir add a fascinating touch.

The cathedral boasts a 16th-century dome-covered tower, and numerous crosses, ciboria, and reliquaries that provide a glimpse into the history of the Angers diocese. The Sainte-Anne chapel, a treasure trove within the cathedral, and various liturgical objects dating from the Romanesque period to the present contribute to the historical significance of this French monument.

For an immersive exploration of this historical treasure, consider booking a car service in Paris to travel directly to Angers. The St. Maurice Cathedral promises a mesmerizing journey into the heart of France's religious and architectural heritage.

The Angers Museum of Fine Arts

Nestled near the historic city of Angers, the Museum of Fine Arts resides within the confines of a former mansion. It is a key part of the complex Toussaint, featuring the Garden of Fine Arts, the David d'Angers Gallery, and the municipal library. The museum is now hailed as the epitome of modern museology in Angers.

The Rich History of the Museum

After the French Revolution, the Logis Barrault mansion served as the Maine-et-Loire Directory's home and the location for the Central Schools. Inspired by the Louvre, the museum opened its doors in 1801. When the Central Schools were moved, the museum became a rich depot for nearby departments, securing its place as one of France's most exquisite establishments, and consequently became the municipal museum four years later.

The museum attracted numerous legacies and prestigious donations, which eventually led to a space shortage. Expansion projects didn't materialize until the early 20th century, with the inauguration of the David d'Angers and Beaurepaire galleries. From 1999 to 2004, several renovations were made, establishing the museum as a true emblem of Angers.

A Treasure Trove of Art

The Museum of Fine Arts of Angers offers an abundance of collections, including paintings, sculptures, and drawings, along with a plethora of art objects from various eras. The museum's historic halls on the first floor showcase artworks from the 14th to the 20th century. Art objects from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance also await discovery.

The museum frequently hosts exhibitions in its halls, immersing visitors into the history of centuries past. Besides its historical monuments, Angers attracts many tourists each year for its natural beauty and a multitude of theme parks.
