Embark on the Angoulême Audio Tour: Echoes, Engines, and Enigmas in the City of Art

A Gothic spire rises against Angoulême’s sky, casting shadows over cobbled streets where comic book heroes and medieval secrets collide. Beneath these stones lies a past as thrilling as any illustrated adventure.

Embark on a self-guided audio tour that pulls back the city’s curtain. Hear the untold stories behind grand cathedrals and riotous festivals. Explore corners most visitors simply walk past, blind to the intrigue beneath their feet.

What shocking scandal once rocked the Saint-Pierre Cathedral? Which hidden messages lurk between the panels of the International Comic Strip Festival? Why did a mysterious congregation gather in the Church of Saint-André at midnight on a rain-soaked night?

Trace the footsteps of rebels, visionaries, and artists. Feel the pulse of Angoulême shifting from the sacred to the spectacular. Discovery here is not a straight line but a winding journey through drama and inspiration.
