Give an Angers-themed gift this Christmas

All our ideas for original gifts that friends and family will love

We’ve concocted a selection of Christmas gift ideas that your nearest and dearest are guaranteed to adore.

A full range of gifts from Angers

Push open the doors of the Tourist Office where the Christmas spirit has taken over our shop.

The shelves are full of good ideas for Christmas gifts to give or to treat yourself! Books on the city, its monuments and its region, local wines and liqueurs from Angers, delicacies and other sweets 100% made in Angers, you’ll be spoilt for choice to please your loved ones!

To be sure to satisfy the taste buds of your friends and family, think of our “Angers” range and offer a summary of Angers to the finest gourmets through the specialities of our region.

Put together your gift box, according to your wishes and your budget, with a selection of products from the Tourist Office shop: Quernons d’Ardoise, box of Caramandes, Giffard syrups, bottle of Cointreau… there is no shortage of gift ideas!

New products not to be missed this year!

White chocolate Caramandes have been invited to the Tourist Office table for Christmas. Les Délices de Flo have concocted a special Christmas confit, ideal for a special treat on December 25. A sweet touch to end the meal? Our Cointreau Truffles are sure to please!

For those with a penchant for decoration, slate soliflore holders made by the Musée de l’ardoise or Botel Matin de Noël scented candles are the perfect gifts, made just around the corner. Discover them at the Tourist Office boutique.

Other new products arrived at the boutique in 2024, available all year round. These include The Line, created by TrilogueDesign. A skyline of Angers where you can find all the must-sees of the destination: the castle, the cathedral, the Saint-Aubin tower… and many more.

If you’ve got a loved one who loves to play shuffleboard, we’ve got just the thing. The 100% leather palet d’Anjou made in Koga Maroquinerie! An indoor game where you define your own rules, inspired by the famous Breton or Vendéen palets, for example. Take it anywhere, play it wherever you like, it’s simple and quiet. An original Christmas gift, don’t you think?

And for little players or Monopoly addicts, take along the special Angers edition! A chance to (re)discover the city. Be the first to buy the Château d’Angers, the Cathédrale Saint-Maurice or the Jardin du Mail.

If you’d like to support the work of artisanal creators, we’d like to introduce you to La boutique du rêveur. These are miniature bird figurines created by Bonnie, who loves birds and nature. An invitation to the poetry and delicacy of nature’s fragility.
