Heritage of Angers

Angers preserves a rich architectural timeline, from the 13th-century fortress of the Château d'Angers to the Art Deco mosaics of the Maison Bleue. This collection features the city's religious heart, including the Saint-Maurice Cathedral and the medieval Hôpital Saint-Jean, one of France's oldest hospital complexes. Visitors can explore narrow streets lined with timber-framed structures like the Maison d’Adam and discover the unique Plantagenet Gothic style, characterized by the highly curved vaults found in the city's historic churches and former abbeys.
