Chatellerault

Châtellerault combines a calm riverside setting with an industrial past in a way that reflects its position on the Vienne in northern Nouvelle-Aquitaine. The town developed around a crossing of the river, and the Pont Henri-IV remains a familiar connection between its two banks. For nearly 150 years, the Manufacture d’Armes de Châtellerault shaped local work and identity; its former buildings still mark the town’s urban fabric. Châtellerault belongs to the historic Poitou area, between Tours and Poitiers, where river valleys and farmland set the wider scene.
