Brocante and Bread Festival of Cussay

Flea Market and Wood-Fired Oven Bread

The Brocante and Bread Festival of Cussay is an event that combines the pleasure of antique hunting with the tradition of baking. While exhibitors offer furniture, tableware, trinkets, toys, tools, clothing, books, antique linens, and flea market items, the communal bread oven is reignited for the occasion, producing beautiful loaves of wood-fired country bread. The smell of warm bread mixes with the flea market atmosphere for a moment of authentic conviviality.

Cussay, a village in Southern Touraine

Cussay is a small village of about 600 inhabitants located in the south of Indre-et-Loire, between Ligueil and Descartes. The village retains a traditional bread oven, carefully maintained and put back into service during festivals, as well as a church and tuffeau houses typical of Touraine architecture. The region, between the Claise valley and the Sainte-Maure plateau, offers a landscape of hedgerows and diversified crops.

Entertainment and Catering

The festival offers a refreshment stand, on-site catering, and small musical entertainment. The bread baked in the oven is for sale. Admission is free.
