The Royal Abbey of Celles-sur-Belle dates from the 11th century and was an important stopover for pilgrims on the way to Santiago de Compostela. During the period of the French Revolution, the abbey was sold as national property and used as a place of detention during the Vendée wars.

Celles-sur-Belle

Highlight • Other

A small town of character stretching along the Belle River. The famous 12th-century abbey is a cultural hotspot hosting exhibitions and festivals. The town has also been awarded the "Ville en poésie" (Poetry City) label, and you'll certainly have the opportunity to read a few poems during your stroll!

The Ruban Vert greenway follows the old Niort–Ruffec railway line, offering an accessible loop between Melle and Celles-sur-Belle, over approximately 9km of stabilized sand. The path winds through countryside, stone walls, shaded bridges and wooded passages, with a picnic area near the Chaillots pond. Accessible to cyclists, hikers and horse riders.
