59th Goat Fair of Céré-la-Ronde

59 years of goat fair and flea market

The Goat Fair of Céré-la-Ronde is one of the oldest rural fairs in Indre-et-Loire. Every last Sunday of October for nearly 60 years, the village comes alive around this tradition that celebrates goat farming, very present in the south of Touraine. The flea market and car boot sale play an important role in the fair, with numerous exhibitors offering antique furniture, tableware, trinkets, books, tools, toys, clothing, rural objects, antique linens, and curiosities. The autumn market complements the stalls with local products.

Céré-la-Ronde, village of Lochois between Montpoupon and Montrésor

Céré-la-Ronde (37460) is a village in Lochois, located between the castles of Montpoupon and Montrésor, in a hilly landscape of hedgerows and woods. The Château de Montpoupon, a medieval fortress housing a hunting museum, is a few kilometers away. The village is at the heart of a farming region — goats, cows — and mixed farming typical of this southern Touraine. The church and old tuffeau farms form a heritage ensemble representative of the Touraine countryside.

Rural fair, entertainment, and gastronomy

The Goat Fair combines a flea market, producers' market, rural entertainment, and tasting of Touraine goat cheeses. Catering on site. Admission is free.
