Ready for a bucolic stroll in a timeless setting? This is what awaits you when you enter the Chédigny presbytery garden.
You can admire the many varieties of perennials - decorative, aromatic, medicinal -, plants brought back from the Crusades, the vegetable garden with its old vegetables and the orchard.
Cross the plant-filled nave of fruit trees and climbing roses to discover the apothecary's square, just before entering the garden of the cross and the sacred grove.
Just opposite is the priest's vineyard, a witness to Chédigny's wine-growing past. Wine lovers will appreciate the old presbytery vineyard and the Chenin grape varieties!
Built in the 12th century, the building is revealed through the flowering rose bushes. Its Romanesque architecture is typical of the region.
Push open its doors to admire its 19th-century stained glass windows, the work of master glassmakers from Tours and Toulouse.
The washhouse, a witness to a thousand-year-old tradition, is dominated by a beautiful renovated wooden frame. Like the watering hole, it is located near the Insdrois.
The opportunity to take a little break, contemplating the green waters of the river...
Photographers, painters, sculptors... Chédigny is home to several artists' workshops, some of which showcase plants in an original way!
