Flea market and bread festival in Cussay, traditional oven baking and antique hunting in Southern Touraine
The Cussay flea market is part of the Bread Festival, a festive day combining antique hunting, traditional wood-fired oven bread baking, and village entertainment in this village in southern Touraine.
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 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.
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.
The Cussay Bread Festival and flea market returns on August 23, 2026.
