Valence Romans Tourisme's Groups and Conventions Department offers the opportunity for your group to explore Valence through several visits to its must-sees of the town : 

 

les toits de valence

The old town of Valence 

 

Discover the cathedral, the famous people in the alleyways and the squares reminiscent of Provence. Valence is a city of art, history, water and commerce. Its composite nature is a real asset, bearing witness to different eras and styles. The history of Valence is told through its streets, squares and monuments. An essential introduction to Valence's rich heritage.

 

 

The water tower 

 

In 1962, the city of Valence decided to create a new district, the design of which was entrusted to architect André Gomis. The district consists of two parts separated by a large park, in the middle of which a water tower is planned. The design was entrusted to the Greek sculptor Philolaos..., who transformed water tanks into a contemporary work of art, a true symbol of the city of Valencia. (outdoor visit only).

Incredible architecture to discover!
 

 

Chateau d'eau Valence
Les canaux de Valence

The canals of Valence
 

Valence offers walkers the fresh tranquility of its canals, scattered throughout the city. A natural and ecological heritage unique in France, the canals have been with Valence since Roman times. Used for watering, feeding washhouses, then mills and sawmills, they run under the open sky for some 17 km.  So many roads to enjoy in all seasons, in the changing colors of nature.
 

 

 

Visit Valence in the 19th century 

 

The grand Boulevards provide an opportunity to explore: Haussmann-style buildings and regulation architecture, changes in scale and perspective. New galleries and the emergence of department stores, cinema, the arrival of gas and electricity, new techniques, the railway station, the arrival of the train in Valence, the upheavals linked to steam and transport and, more generally, the metamorphoses linked to industrialization will no longer hold any secrets for you.
