About this event


⚠️ Event concluded. Please check our updated agenda to discover new activities in this region.

A storytelling walk through the Marais des Prébendes reveals the Bourges marshes as both an ecological site and a landscape of imagination. Tales and legends from Berry and farther afield accompany the route, with George Sand and her contemporaries providing a particular literary thread. Spoken narrative changes the pace of observation, drawing attention to water, vegetation and the cultivated character of this emblematic environment. The experience joins natural heritage with the oral art of carrying stories from one place to another. By setting literature outdoors, the walk gives Sand’s sensitivity to landscape a tangible local frame and lets the marshes become more than scenery: they act as a living partner to the words.
