Doué-en-Anjou is a remarkable commune in the Maine-et-Loire department of western France, situated in the heart of the Anjou region. It was created in 2016 from the merger of Doué-la-Fontaine and seven neighboring villages. The town is globally recognized as the capital of roses, with its nurseries producing millions of rosebushes each year and hosting the prestigious 'Journées de la Rose' festival every July. Perhaps its most famous attraction is the Bioparc de Doué-la-Fontaine, the only zoo in the world established within an ancient shell-limestone quarry, providing a dramatic and ethical environment for endangered species. The town's unique geology has led to an extensive network of troglodyte sites, underground dwellings, stables, and cellars carved directly into the soft 'falun' rock. Visitors can immerse themselves in this subterranean world at 'Le Mystère des Faluns,' an artistic journey through massive caves. Historically, Doué-en-Anjou has a Carolingian castle remains (an 'aula'), dating back to the 9th century, making it one of the oldest stone buildings in France. Surrounded by the vineyards of the Saumur region, it is also a hub for wine tourism and traditional Anjou gastronomy, notably the famous 'fouée' bread cooked in wood-fired ovens.
