Friendly Flea Market at the Avon-les-Roches Stadium

The twinning committee of Avon-les-Roches organizes a flea market car boot sale every summer at the communal stadium, rue de la Poste. Individuals and professionals offer furniture, trinkets, crockery, books, toys, clothes, and various other items. The atmosphere is warm and village-like, driven by the conviviality of the twinning committee which provides generous on-site catering: Touraine fouées, sandwiches, croissants, and cold drinks.

Avon-les-Roches, troglodyte village in the Manse Valley

The village is known for its troglodyte dwellings dug into the tuffeau stone and for the Château des Roches-Tranchelion, whose romantic ruins overlook the valley. The Romanesque church and the white stone houses give the town an authentic charm. The stadium, located on the edge of the village, offers an open space ideal for the flea market.
