Montjean-sur-Loire

A typical village on the banks of the Loire between Angers, Nantes and Cholet, Montjean sur Loire has long lived by the rhythm of the river.

Discover the history and culture of the Loire city through the Cap Loire Discovery Park, on foot, by bike or on a boat cruise.

It was the leading port on the Loire in the 19th century, and was very busy until the end of the century, when hemp growing and the production of around twenty lime kilns required sustained transport by boat.
