Vendée

The Vendée department is the most touristic one, thanks to its numerous facilities, especially for summer holidays on the Coast. But that's not all. With over 700 châteaux, country houses, castles, abbeys and medieval fortresses to visit, not to mention countless parks and gardens, you'll never be short of interesting places to explore.
