Vernou-sur-Brenne

Tourism, holidays & weekends guide in the Indre-et-Loire

Located at the confluence of the valleys of the Loire, Cisse and Brenne Vernou appears from the 5th century in the writings of Gregory of Tours in his History of the Franks with the form "Vernaus vicus". Attached to the history of the archbishops of Tours in the 9th century, the village became a barony, also called Vernou Archbishop. Tranquility and authenticity of the valleys and Cousse Vaugondy characterize the natural charm of this village. Castle Jallanges once fief the castle of Amboise, offers you in its harmonious architecture combining stone and bricks and French gardens. In the town center, you will discover the Romanesque church of the Holy Trinity (built in the 6th century. St. in Everlasting) and rebuilt in the eleventh, restored in the 12th and 15th centuries. Other remarkable properties are to be discovered such as Clos de Pouvray mansions, Lower Cousse, the castle of Madeira, Hotel Noble near the village and several mills: Landes, Garnier, Griard of Villemereau, Upper - Cousse, and Angibault.
