A roof frame shaped like an upside-down boat hull gives the church in Civrac-De-Blaye an unusual architectural feature. Together with the Le 920 cultural space, the Boucle des Moulins and the summer Marché Gourmand, the town offers several ways to shape a stay: architectural history, cultural activities, hiking or dining together. You can therefore first decide whether you would rather plan your trip around a visit, an activity, a 17.2-kilometre loop or a summer event.

Church and cultural activities

The church in Civrac-De-Blaye was rebuilt during the Renaissance. Its roof frame dates from the 15th century and is shaped like an upside-down boat hull. These two details relate to different architectural aspects: the rebuilding and the roof construction. Visits are free and available by prior appointment. So arrange your visit in advance rather than leaving it to chance on the day.

Le 920 is an intergenerational cultural space offering events and activities for children and adults throughout the year. This makes it a different reason to plan ahead than a church visit: events and activities are at the heart of the cultural space, while the church visit focuses on a specific building and requires an appointment. If you want to visit Le 920 for a particular offering, check what is scheduled for your travel dates.

Walking loop and landscape

The Boucle des Moulins is a 17.2-kilometre circular walking route between Civrac-De-Blaye and Saint-Savin. Its total length is a specific planning detail if hiking is a deciding factor in choosing your destination. Civrac-De-Blaye’s landscape includes open, grazed meadows. So, alongside its architectural history, you can choose a named walking loop or a rural landscape as separate interests.

Summer event and motorhome pitches

The Marché Gourmand is a festive summer event in the garden park of Civrac-De-Blaye. A large number of producers, winegrowers and food trucks serve food that can be enjoyed at the park’s large communal tables.

Two free motorhome pitches are available in the town hall park. The site is in a shady spot beside a small pond. An information board at the pitches points out places of interest and other motorhome pitches in the surrounding area. Motorhome travellers are therefore given both a specific place to stay and information to help them find their way around locally.

Plan your stay

If you are looking for a hotel, first decide which dates will shape your stay. The church visit requires a prior appointment; for the Marché Gourmand, the specific event date matters. The 17.2-kilometre walk is another element to factor into your plans.
