Presentation
As part of the 30th anniversary of the city's archaeology centre
For nearly fifteen centuries, the city of Orléans was enclosed by a wall to protect it from invaders. The city developed both inside and outside the wall. Archaeological work over the last 30 years has given us a better understanding of this development. Come and take a journey through the city's history.
This tour is organised in partnership with the Archaeology Unit of Orléans City Council.
Please note that this tour covers a fairly wide area of the town. Good walking shoes are essential.
Departure point: corner of rue du Faubourg Bourgogne and rue de l'Abreuvoir.
Full price: €7.50.
Reduced rate: €5.50 (with proof of entitlement) Jobseekers, over-65s, 1 accompanying "PASSé-simple" cardholder.
Free: (with proof) Under-18s, students, people with disabilities and 1 accompanying adult, people receiving minimum welfare benefits, PASSé-simple members.
