Angouleme Rail Station

The ancient city of Angouleme in France’s Poitou-Charentes region is a dynamic city with a wealth of history and culture to keep visitors occupied while holidaying here. Historic sights and cultural institutions rank high on the list of attractions in the city.

The Angouleme Rail Station sits on the Paris-Bordeaux line, providing convenient access to a number of top cities and smaller towns along the route. The SNCF station lies in close proximity to many guesthouses and hotels and is within walking distance of the theatre, cathedral and the Town Hall.

The Cathedral of St Pierre is the city’s most prominent feature, built in the Byzantine-Romanesque style and dating back to the 11th and 12th centuries. Exploring the city, you will come across one of its most curious characteristics, the ‘murs pente’, graffiti style cartoons that can be seen on walls throughout the urban area.

Angouleme accommodations range from quaint guesthouses to chic boutique hotels. Villa and house rentals are also popular with visitors wishing to spend longer periods in the city, with many options both in town and in the surrounding countryside.

One of the best ways to get to know Angouleme is to tour on foot. Taxis are available, usually by calling, while bus routes run to a number of top sights in the city. However, it is car hire that remains the most popular option for transport in Angouleme, one that allows you freedom to get to many scenic places that would be otherwise inaccessible.
