Niort: a family and business destination for memorable holidays
A city with an incredible historical and cultural heritage
A stopover in Niort's historic centre will reveal some remarkable monuments. Listed as a historic monument, and the town's emblem, you won't want to miss the Donjon de Niort, visible from afar with its twin towers.
The town boasts several churches, in the very centre, Notre Dame de Niort and Saint André de Niort will be well worth a look. Among the town's many museums, the Pilori, formerly the town hall, is a medieval building that is now a museum housing works of visual and contemporary art. The Bernard d'Agesci museum, meanwhile, is a former girls' high school and now houses the Beaux-Arte, Natural History and Education museums. A must-see stop on your stroll around the city is Les Halles, a modern building built in the era of glass, cast iron and steel, a convivial place that will appeal to lovers of good food.
Sports and nature in the heart of the city
The city of Niort has many green spaces, ideal for relaxation and sporting activities. At Port Boinot, a former industrial site turned river port, set off on a pleasant canoeing trip on the Sèvre Niortaise. The Place de la Brèche and its large green spaces offer water games and children's play areas, ideal for a cool break in summer! There are also footpaths and cycle lanes, so you can explore the town on foot or by bike in complete safety.
A green tourism destination
In this town, nature is not in short supply. The city of Niort, a symbol of biodiversity, has managed to preserve or develop natural areas that are ideal for relaxation. The Jardin de la Brèche in the heart of the city is a good example of how nature is still omnipresent in this urban environment. The Sèvre Niortaise, which runs through the town, is another example. From Port Boinot, you can take a river cruise, canoe or paddle across the river or simply walk or cycle along the banks to join the Vélo Francette. Port Boinot benefits from a remarkably landscaped area, making it a pleasant and peaceful place to visit. Niort is the starting point for the Marais Poitevin, also known as the Venise Verte, which stretches as far as the Vendée coastline. Along the way, you'll find a number of piers where you can take a boat trip. Fishing is also very popular.
