Fissac–Seguins footbridge
Highlight • Other
A first wooden footbridge, completed in 1894, provided access for the children of Fissac to the Les Seguins school. Aging poorly, it was demolished a few months after the construction of the second.
Only a masonry clump in the middle of the Touvre River remains as a reminder of its existence.

René Goscinny Obelisk
Highlight • Monument
On the occasion of the fortieth anniversary of the death of René Goscinny, the René Goscinny Institute, with the support of the International Comic Strip Festival, is offering the City of Angoulême, the international capital of comic strips, a monument that will last a long time. Built in a public place, passers-by will be able to appropriate this obelisk and have fun deciphering its inscriptions.
The obelisk for Goscinny is a stone monolith on which are engraved 82 quotes taken from the works of the screenwriter including Asterix, Lucky Luke, Iznogoud, Le Petit Nicolas, Les Dingodossiers...
Some of these phrases are part of our everyday language: "They are crazy these Romans", "Find the magic potion", "Be afraid that the sky will fall on our heads", "Shoot faster than your shadow", "Want to be caliph in the place of the caliph"...
Translated into 150 languages and dialects, the work of René Goscinny has traveled around the world. Thanks to his qualities as a screenwriter and the talent of his co-authors, Albert Uderzo, Morris, Sempé, Tabary, Gotlib, the comic strip becomes the 9th art.
This monument is a tribute to the entire comic strip.

Montbron Castle
Highlight • Castle
Built under the authority of Marguerite de Rohan, Countess of Angoulême, the castle consists of a main building on which leans a polygonal tower through which you can access using a remarkable spiral staircase, two magnificent painted fireplaces dating from the 17th century. adorning the two exhibition halls on the first floor.
The whole, built with the stones of the old feudal fortress, was integrated into the city surrounded by ramparts.
In summer, all the rooms of the castle welcome various artists (painters, sculptors, visual artists, craftsmen...).
