Saint-Pryvé-Saint-Mesmin

Built in the second half of the 19th century, between 1865 and 1867, the Saint-Privat church replaces a first older building deemed too dilapidated. Not far, it is possible to admire the house of Saussay or the Four Turrets which now benefits from an inscription in the Historic Monuments.

While strolling in the town, do not miss going to discover the Vieux Four with its high brick chimney which was used in the past for the manufacture of tiles and bricks. It is also the subject of an inscription in the Historic Monuments. During your walk, you can also admire the 19th century Micy cross, the 17th century Saint-Nicolas bridge or the Europe bridge, an inclined bowstring arch bridge with very original architecture.

But Saint-Pryvé-Saint-Mesmin is above all a rich natural heritage to discover by taking the various marked trails such as the New Bourg, the Vieux Bourg, the Confluence or the Mills. You will also enjoy going to Lake Bel-Air with its fishing area and fitness trail, to the Bois de la Trésorerie with its arboretum or to the tip of Courpain with its alluvial forest of more than ten. hectares. The latter takes place in the heart of the Saint-Mesmin nature reserve, a protected area.

The weekly market is held every Saturday morning.

In mid-July, the city offers a popular ball and fireworks to celebrate the festivities of the National Day.

In October, it's time for the Atomic Rocking festival and its concerts and events.
