Tournon Castle

Highlight • Other

Tournon-sur-Rhône Castle sits picturesquely above the Rhône River and offers magnificent views of the Hermitage vineyards. Its origins date back to the 10th century, making a visit a journey through history. Inside, the museum showcases regional art, archaeology, and maritime history. The contrast between the medieval fortress and elegant Renaissance architecture is particularly charming. A stroll through the old town and across the suspension bridge to Tain-l'Hermitage perfectly rounds off the visit.

The Tournon-sur-Rhône War Memorial impressively commemorates the fallen of both World Wars. It is centrally located in the old town, near the Rhône River and the castle. The bronze figure and delicate reliefs convey quiet dignity and gratitude. A brief stop is worthwhile for history buffs and strollers alike.

Passerelle Marc-Seguin

Highlight • Bridge

The Marc-Seguin footbridge was built by Marc Seguin between 1847 and 1849. It is a wider and higher version of the first suspension bridge he had built next door in 1825 (destroyed in 1965). The footbridge, formerly a road bridge, has been used solely as a pedestrian bridge and then also as a cyclist bridge since the construction of the modern Gustave Toursier bridge in 1958. The building has been listed as a historic monument since 1985.

Place of passage, life or vacation, Tain-l'Hermitage is known for Valrhona chocolate, the terraced vineyards with renowned appellations and the famous N7. The Marc Seguin suspension bridge, hailed for its technical innovation at the time, now allows you to cross the Rhône with dry feet! Until the 19th century, you had to take a flat-bottomed ferry to reach the other side.

🍫Adventure world and factory outlet with tasting. Regional specialties such as almond nougat. Quite expensive, but the rooms are well cooled, which was very pleasant today 🥶🥵😅.
