When in the pedestrian centre of Niort, meander the streets, taking in the old facades which are dotted around, including the Governor's House and the Estissac Mansion. At the centre of this historical, old quarter is the Renaissance style town hall, the Pilori, built upon the site of a medieval pillory. It has now been converted into a contemporary art exhibition space.
