Senonches, a town surrounded by nature...
The town of Senonches is set in a vast state forest – one of the largest in France. Come explore its hedged farmland, lakes and canals. Senonches has been awarded the “Station Verte” label for its exceptional and welcoming environment.
Architecture fans will appreciate the town’s medieval castle (12th – 17th Centuries) and the church with its weathered 12th Century bell tower.
