University of Tours

About university of tours.

Established in 1969, François Rabelais University of Tours is named after the French renaissance writer, doctor, humanist, monk and Greek scholar. It was established as part of efforts to modernise and democratise higher education in France after the student protests of May 1968. In keeping with its namesake, the university is a renowned specialist in renaissance studies and boasts a dedicated Centre for Advanced Studies in the Renaissance, as well as a recently added Institute of Technology and the Polytechnical Engineering School. Research at the University is particularly prominent in the areas of social sciences and humanities and food heritage, through a programme at the Institute of European History and Culture of Food.

Based in the central western French city of Tours, in the Loire Valley, there are seven campuses: Tanneurs, Tonnellé, Portalis/Deux-Lions, Grandmont, Pont-Volant, Fromont and Emile Zola. Considered one of the most beautiful areas of France and infused with medieval history, Tours is a buzzing city with 40,000 students and is also known as the "garden of France". Tours is 55 minutes by TGV train from Paris and also has an airport with daily flights to and from London.

The University of Tours welcomes around 2,700 international students every year, making up more than 10 per cent of its student body, half of which are Erasmus students and half of which come from partner universities outside Europe.

Notable alumni include France 3 journalist Marie-Laure Augry, TF1 journalist Harry Roselmack and Philippe Briand, a member of the National Assembly.

Tours through the neighbourhoods - Rabelais

Ville d'Art et d'Histoire

  • Tours au fil des quartiers - Rabelais

Led by a guide, the Tours Loire Valley Tourist Office and the city of Tours are offering a themed tour of the Rabelais district. Under the Ancien Régime, the city of Tours developed with the construction of successive city walls.  In the 19th century, with the annexation of Saint-Étienne-Extra, the city confirmed its expansion to the south. The second half of the 19th century was marked by the multiplication of large urban construction sites that met a growing need for housing. Finally, the annexation of the communes of Saint-Symphorien and Sainte-Radegonde, in 1964, enabled the town to expand northwards.

Practical informations

Please arrive 10 minutes before the start of the tour. Free for children under 12 (contact us: 02 47 70 37 37) Reservations must be made in advance at the Tourist Office or online. No sales on site.  The guided tour is in French only and is intended for individuals.
