Montmorillon

Montmorillon is a commune in the Vienne department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region in western France. It is one of France’s many charming towns and an unmissable destination.

The unique octagonal buildings in Europe, the Church of Saint-Laurent, the Church of Notre-Dame de Galandon, underground crypts covered in various murals, and a two-story old palace all bear witness to Montmorillon’s medieval history. The ancient streets are lined with exquisite shops, the most iconic local dessert — macarons, a variety of delicious restaurants, and numerous festivals held throughout the year all contribute to Montmorillon’s unique charm. In addition, the Macaron Museum (Musée du Macaron), a museum showcasing the historical evolution of rural life in the area, beautiful parks, riverside scenery, and interesting outdoor activities are also not to be missed.
