Things to see and do Aubigny-Sur-Nère

The Stuarts Castle has the privilege of building in our memory an architectural meeting dating from the Renaissance. It was built by Robert Stuart, the first captain of the Scottish guard and lord of Aubigny from 1508 to 1540, which was widely illustrated during the Italian campaigns. A part is now dedicated to the city hall. Not to mention the Auld-Alliance Memorial, which thus perpetuates the sealed pact between the kingdoms of France and Scotland. You can also admire the tapestries of Aubusson by Louis XIV in Louise de Keroualle. Restorations took place since, especially the south wing at the end of the nineteenth century. It has been classified as Historic Monument since 1862, thank you certainly Mérimée!

Victorine House offers a journey over time, discovering Aubigny. The annual exhibitions present souvenirs and objects gathered by the fans of the city's contemporary history. Every year a carefully chosen research theme allows you to trace the life of the city a while ago. It's all the more so because the proximity trade is going on in this albino land, which adds to the charm of the proposed themes! Documents, objects, various anecdotes, songs, postcards, photos plunge us into the memory of Aubigny, the Franco-Scottish, ensuring every year an exhibition in the authentic context of a house of the sixteenth century.

Built in the thirteenth century, then restored and enlarged at the end of the xve and early sixteenth century, this church dedicated to Saint Martin de Tours has unsuspected riches. In addition to its richly decorated nef, the impressive building has a set of fine, polychrome statues for many of them. The church also displays epitaphes of the late sixteenth century as well as paintings painted somewhat singular where pastel is referred to. The retable of the sixteenth century evoking a Tomb and a Virgin of Pity of the seventeenth century are upsetting, and these carved woods question whether or they are not neophyte. Good example of a hidden richness of this enchanting Sologne.

In the saddle! This time we will take you around the ponds of Aubigny-sur-Nère. Climb your car to the sports park of the commune and follow the markup: It will take you first to the two water plans, then you will go through the RD 7. You will then longerez the Nère over a few kilometres, before crossing it shortly after the mill du Bois. Your journey leads you to the hamlet of the Forts. Always follow the indications: You will soon come to the RD 940 and see the Velluets. Finally take the direction of the Maltournée, the last step before you return to the port.
