Le Chateau et mon Ville; Angers

Here are some photos of major places around Angers. I will try and post a few more macro scale ones soon. But here are a few to start you off.




This is a side view of the cathedral within the chateau


The chateau is also home to a collection of famous Apocolypse tapestries


The cathedral is currently under restoration

This is part of the chateau in Angers. The chateau is one of the oldest walled "homes" still preserved in fairly good condition. The outer wall is surrounded by a mote and inside are several buildings and the cathedral.


This is the river called La Maine that runs near the center of Angers


This is one of the dominant cathedrals that can be seen above the skyline of the city


This is a photo of a dias inside the cathedral


The cathedral ...



This is outside the cathdral looking towards the river. The centre ville or the towns center is located near the river. On the outskirts are newer sections of the town where more modern apartment buildings have sprung up.
