28 June – A rest day in Nevers
We spent the day sight seeing in the city (on foot) and having lunch. It is very hot.
The highlight was the Cathedral of Saint Cyr and Sainte Julitte that has marvelous modern stained glass which reflects different colors on the walls. This was replaced as large parts of the Cathedral were damaged in the Second World War.
There is also a Dukes Palace and medieval city ramparts. The city is known for it’s ceramics and there are shops with hand painted porcelain (we saw some actually being painted in one shop).
