Are the tours suitable for children?

Yes, most of the sites offer fun trails, games booklets or activities dedicated to young explorers.

Are the cultural sites open all year round?

Opening times vary from site to site. Most open from spring to autumn, but some remain open in winter (the Abbaye de Nieul-sur-l’Autise, the Musée Clemenceau – De Lattre and the Planetarium de la Chapelle-aux-Lys). Don’t forget to check the opening times directly on the information sheet for each site.
