Poitiers City Hall, located on Place du Maréchal-Leclerc, is an imposing 19th-century building designed in a neo-Renaissance style. Its elegant architecture, with an ornate façade and a central belfry, makes it a historical and administrative symbol of the city.

There are several reasons why you should visit Poitiers City Hall:

Stunning Architecture: Built in the 19th century in a neo-Renaissance style, the City Hall features a richly decorated façade, an imposing belfry, and architectural details that speak to the history and art of the period.

Poitiers

Highlight • Settlement

Poitiers benefits from the City and Country of Art and History label and in the hyper-centre, the "plateau", a short walk allows you to discover the typical half-timbered and half-timbered houses, the Palace of the Counts of Poitou and the majestic Notre-Dame-la-Grande. It is the starting point for many very nice itineraries!

Chemin de la Faravelle

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Small path that runs along the Clain and which leads to the "Farvavelle" ferry. The chain ferry makes it very easy to reach the other side independently.
