The Middle Age come alive again in a stunning sound and light show that illuminates the medieval district at sundown.

The prestigious monuments of Bourges’ Old Town take on a new appearance at nightfall when specially designed lighting and sound effects are set into motion.

Guided by the blue halo of the lamplights, the visitor threads his way around the luminescent jewel of the Cathedral and through the winding streets, stopping here and there to admire details bathed in a soft glow of light : the elegant carving of a porch, a gargoyle learing from a doorway, or a timber-framed house silhouetted against the night sky.

Admittance is free
