Brocante of July 14th in Éguzon

Flea market of the national holiday by the lake

On July 14th, Éguzon-Chantôme (36270) celebrates the national holiday with, among other festivities, its summer flea market. Exhibitors set up in the village streets to offer furniture, tableware, trinkets, books, tools, toys, decorative objects, and various finds. The event benefits from the considerable tourist influx generated by the Chambon lake during the peak summer season, attracting a mix of locals, holidaymakers, and passing bargain hunters.

Éguzon in summer, a tourist resort in Berry

In July, Éguzon-Chantôme lives to the rhythm of its lake. The Chambon lake, created by the dam on the Creuse river, offers 312 hectares of turquoise waters suitable for swimming, sailing, canoeing, and fishing. The supervised beaches, water sports centers, and hiking trails attract thousands of visitors each summer. The village, with its shops, restaurants, and terraces, buzzes with intense tourist activity. The Éguzon dam, inaugurated in 1926, is itself a remarkable structure worth visiting.
