Playing in Montmorillon
Montmorillon stretches along the Gartempe, and its bridges link very different quarters. The Brouard, the old core of the town, has kept medieval-looking houses restored for the Cité de l'écrit and the book trades. The Notre-Dame church is there too. The Maison-Dieu preserves the Octogone, an octagonal building listed as a historic monument. All of it can be reached on foot, from place to place, which suits a trail game well.
The streets of the Brouard climb from the river: plan comfortable shoes. If you want a stop inside the church or the Maison-Dieu, check their opening hours in advance.
