Pays de la Loire

The Loire River defines much of Pays de la Loire — its broad valley has long supported vineyards, market gardening and river towns. This western French region extends from the Atlantic coast to inland farmland and includes Nantes, Angers, Le Mans and the Vendée. In Angers, the medieval Château d’Angers holds the Apocalypse Tapestry, a major late-medieval work commissioned by Louis I, Duke of Anjou. Nantes developed as an important Loire port, while the river is also followed by the Loire à Vélo cycling route. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Pays de la Loire.
