The city has 150 000 inhabitants and offers a very mild and quiet setting to its visitors. Things to see in Angers include the medieval castle, some museums (Musée des beaux-arts, Galérie David d'Angers, Jean Lurçat,...), the enjoyable pedestrian "centre ville", and the surroundings (beautiful landscapes, vineyards, etc.). The Angers CS group boasts 165 members of which the majority are very active. You will most likely have no trouble having your questions answered.
