Directions
Please continue straight ahead from Centre ville to reach cathédrale St. Pierre. After passing the cathedral, you will find Mairie on your left. Take a right turn onto rue Maurice Martineau, and at the end of the road, you must turn right, despite the interdiction sign stating "except riverain." Your reservation grants you the legal right to proceed in this direction.
