Our city owes its beauty to the artisans, carpenters, workers, and architects who built it. This tour is a tribute to them, and a way of imparting their knowledge to you. We will reveal the artistic and architectural history behind our façades while walking through Bordeaux’s most beautiful neighborhoods. We will enter artisans’ workshops to discover the techniques involved in forging iron or carving limestone. The wrought iron is used to create our beautiful balconies, and the omnipresent limestone is what gave the city its title of “the Aquitaine blonde”.
