Itinerary

Main stop

Pl. des Quinconces, 33000 Gironde

Start your walk at Place des Quinconces. Just open Ciceru nearby to begin exploring the monumental fountain and its bronze horses from the outside. The column, statues and waterworks tell the full revolutionary story without needing to enter any structure.

Rue Gobineau, 33000 Gironde

View Maison Gobineau from the exterior. Its prow shaped façade, carved stonework and elegant position on the Allées de Tourny make this one of Bordeaux’s most distinctive buildings, fully appreciated outdoors

Pl. de la Comédie, 33000 Gironde

Admire the Grand-Théâtre from Place de la Comédie. The twelve muses, the Neoclassical columns and the sweeping portico reveal the building’s grandeur from the outside, offering a complete experience without going in.

Pl. de la Bourse, 33000 Gironde

Walk across the open square and enjoy the façades of the Bourse while watching their reflection across the Miroir d’Eau. This stop is entirely outdoors, where the mist, pooling water and panoramic views create the famous mirrored effect.

Place du Palais, 33000 Bordeaux

Pause before Porte Cailhau and take in its Gothic and Renaissance details from ground level. The turrets, sculpture of Charles VIII and fortified archway are all best admired from the street.

33000 Gironde

Explore this lively square from the outside. Terraces, façades and the geometric layout echo the old market footprint, and the history of punishments once carried out here is fully conveyed in the open space.

1 Rue Saint-James, 33000 Bordeaux

Stand along Rue Saint-James to view the Grosse Cloche from beneath its arch. The bell tower, golden leopard and stone ramparts are all experienced outdoors, where the structure dominates the old city gate.

Pl. Pey Berland, 33000 Gironde

Wrap up your tour at the exterior of Saint-André Cathedral and the nearby Pey-Berland Tower. Admire the Gothic portal, the separate bell tower and the surrounding square before ending your walk at Bordeaux’s spiritual and architectural centerpiece.
