Impressive and well preserved collection of art. Location is wheelchair accessible with ramps and elevators to all levels. Restaurant available on site. No audio guides available. Temporary exhibit had bi-lingual explanations in French and English. Permanent exhibit explanations are in French only. Keep your ticket as it may be checked at various entry points.

Lovely museum, didn’t understand a lot as I sadly don’t speak much French but still cool to see a lot of the history of Angers and lots of great paintings. Very friendly staff and it wasn’t busy at all. Very affordable price at just €6.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
