Visiting Saumur in winter: is it worth it?<\/h2>\n\n

Our review<\/h3>\n\n

We recommend visiting Saumur in winter, especially if you don't like crowds. You'll be able to enjoy the monuments and museums at your leisure, most of which remain open during the winter months. Examples include the Mus\u00e9e des Blind\u00e9s<\/a> and the Ch\u00e2teau de Saumur<\/a>. These are 2 places we particularly enjoyed. But be sure to check the opening times before you visit, as they usually close in January.<\/p>\n\n
