Annual Flea Market of Châteauneuf-sur-Charente

The flea market of Châteauneuf-sur-Charente: treasure hunting by the river

Every year in May, the Bain des Dames leisure area hosts the annual flea market of Châteauneuf-sur-Charente. This enchanting site, located on the banks of the Charente and shaded by large trees, offers an idyllic setting for a family treasure hunting day. Organized by Ape2m, the parents' association for nursery and primary schools, this event combines good deals and associative commitment.

Le Bain des Dames, a green setting

The Bain des Dames leisure area, accessible via the chemin de l'île Mattard, is one of the most beautiful green spaces in Châteauneuf-sur-Charente. Bordered by the peaceful waters of the Charente, this shaded area offers welcome coolness on May days. The flea market stalls are set up among the trees, creating a bucolic treasure hunting route appreciated by visitors.

Châteauneuf-sur-Charente, a wine-growing and heritage town

Châteauneuf-sur-Charente is a small town of character located between Angoulême and Cognac, in the heart of the Charente vineyards. Its Romanesque church of Saint-Pierre, a listed Historic Monument, bears witness to a rich medieval past. The Charente river, which flows through the commune, offers a remarkable natural setting and is a privileged place for walks. The Bain des Dames flea market is part of this tradition of hospitality and conviviality.

Organization for families

Ape2m provides visitors with all the necessary amenities: catering, drinks, and restrooms. The profits from the day are entirely reinvested in financing school activities and educational outings for the nursery and primary schools in the commune. A great way to combine business with pleasure.
