Join the Saintes community to celebrate the holiday season! Our guide accompanies you through the festivities and activities that bring life to our Charente city during this festive period.
From Place Saint-Pierre to the banks of the Charente River, the city adorns itself with winter decorations. The traditional Christmas market sets up on Place Bassompierre, while illuminations line the medieval streets of the historic center. The Abbey aux Dames shops and local artisans offer their creations, as the aromas of mulled wine and gingerbread perfume the city center's atmosphere.
Happy Holidays!
