Loudun, Administrative division in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France
Loudun sits at an elevation of 88 meters, covering 143 square kilometers of varied terrain between Chinon and Thouars in western France.
The Treaty of Loudun, signed on May 3, 1616, marked a resolution to conflicts within the French government during the early 17th century.
The town maintains five government-listed monuments and numerous medieval buildings that reflect its architectural development through different periods.
Located 133 kilometers from Nantes and 272 kilometers from Paris, Loudun connects to major cities through an extensive road network.
The 1634 Loudun incident involving Ursuline nuns led to multiple artistic interpretations, including literature and film adaptations.
