"Ornans, the "Venice of Franche-Comté"" Franche-Comté Things to Do Tip by himalia11

Ornans is a lovely town and is called the "Venice of Franche-Comté" because of its nice houses at the Loue river. In the tourist information, you can get a free booklet on the town with city map, information on sights and much more. It's in French, English and German. When you follow the circuit outlined in that booklet you will see most interesting sights and places.
On the main street there are many shops and restaurants, so you don't need to leave hungry. And if you are up to walking you can climb up to the rocks and enjoy the view from there. I'm sure the tourist information can provide you with information on all the walking paths.
