Grosse Cloche

The Grosse Cloche de Bordeaux, literally the Big Bell of Bordeaux, is a belfry on the old Medieval Town Hall, above a former dungeon for juveniles. You can see two 40 meter towers standing to the sides of a central building. The 18th-century bell has an impressive weight of 7,800 kilograms and rings out to mark special occasions.

Bordeaux Cathedral of St Andrew

Yet another astonishing religious building in Bordeaux. The first version of the cathedral was constructed in the 11th century, though the structure has undergone many changed through the ages. Outside the cathedral you will find a square with many cafes, perfect for a short coffee break. You can also see the St Andre Cathedral from a different perspective by climbing the Tower of Pey-Berland.

Museum of Aquitaine

The Museum of Aquitaine is a treasure trove of regional and non-European archaeological and ethnological artefacts. Housed on a site that was once a 16th-century convent, it offers a fascinating insight into the history of Bordeaux and Aquitaine. With over 70,000 pieces tracing the region's history from prehistoric times to the present day, alongside 5,000 artefacts from Africa and Oceania, the museum provides a comprehensive understanding of the city's rich past and harbour history.

Saint-Émilion

Just 35 kilometres northeast of Bordeaux lies the world's first active UNESCO-designated wine region. This medieval city is truly breathtaking, brimming with historical monuments and museums. Some of these intriguing sites are even tucked away underground! It's a must-visit for any wine enthusiast or history lover.
