Pentecost Flea Market in Tournon-Saint-Martin

Every Pentecost Sunday, the village of Tournon-Saint-Martin (36220) hosts its annual flea market. Exhibitors – dealers and individuals – take over the squares and streets of the center to offer furniture, tableware, trinkets, books, toys, tools, clothing, and various second-hand items. The event benefits from the extended Pentecost weekend, which attracts many visitors to this part of Indre, rich in natural and architectural heritage.

Tournon-Saint-Martin, crossroads between Brenne and the Creuse valley

Tournon-Saint-Martin is a commune of about 1,200 inhabitants located at the confluence of the Creuse and the Claise rivers, at the gates of the Brenne Regional Natural Park. The village retains a remarkable Romanesque church, an old bridge over the Creuse, and ancient houses that bear witness to its historical importance as a stopping point between Berry and Touraine. Its proximity to the ponds of La Brenne – a paradise for ornithologists – and the sites of the Creuse valley makes it a popular base for nature and heritage lovers.

Bargain hunting in a preserved natural setting

The flea market of Tournon-Saint-Martin offers a pleasant opportunity to combine bargain hunting with discovering La Brenne. Admission is free, and the festive atmosphere of the Pentecost weekend adds to the event's conviviality.
