The Roanne tourist office develops a program of guided tours each year to help you discover the city in a different way. Themed tours on foot or by bus… the choice is yours!
Catherine, passionate and fascinating tour guide
Let yourself be carried away during a visit by our tour guide Catherine. She will share with you her passion for this city which has continued to develop over the centuries. It will captivate you as much on the built heritage of Roanne as on its industrial past.
And if you are looking for something unusual, why not take a tour of the cemetery? If you are more into taste, discover its gourmet tour which will introduce you to local products and the history of the Halles Diderot.
The 2024 program will take you to discover the city nestled on the banks of the Loire: its old center, the busy shopping streets, the built heritage, the port... Roanne is also... a city recognized for its gastronomy, its activity fashion and its textile creation!
