Culture

The Porte des Moulins is the only surviving medieval town gate in Montbazon; it was fortified in 1471. The Ruelle des Anges passes beneath a half-timbered house dating from the 16th century and runs alongside the presbytery's parish garden. The Hôtel-Dieu of Montbazon was built around 1476 to provide pilgrims travelling to Santiago de Compostela with refuge and accommodation.
