Minimes bridge

In the Middle Ages, the district of the lower town of Chartres was in effervescence. Today, the streets bear the names of the many trades of yesteryear.

The wash houses along the Eure river are a testimony to the life of that time, when the washerwomen washed their clothes by hand.

The bridge of the Minimes bears the name of the religious order whose convent occupied this place from the 17th century until the Revolution.
