  Blois - "L'escalier Denis-Papin" Postcard / 10x15cm

  The Denis-Papin stairs in Blois, built at the end of the 19th century, are an essential symbol of the city. They connect the lower quarter to the upper quarter, offering a breathtaking view of the Loire. These stairs pay tribute to Denis Papin, an illustrious scientist and inventor from Blois, known for his pioneering work on the steam engine.

  Every summer, the steps are transformed into a huge artistic canvas for the city's cultural events. Since 2013, they have hosted a monumental work that attracts both locals and tourists. This tradition gives the stairs a unique cultural dimension, transforming them into an open-air museum. The frescoes, often inspired by the history and heritage of Blois, are renewed each year, offering visitors a new discovery each time they climb.

  The Denis-Papin stairs are a place of meeting, wonder and culture in the historic heart of Blois.
