Give an Angers-themed gift this Christmas

All our ideas for original gifts that friends and family will love

We’ve concocted a selection of Christmas gift ideas that your nearest and dearest are guaranteed to adore.

A full range of gifts from Angers

Two options to suit your preferences

Step inside the Tourist Office, where the Christmas spirit has taken over our shop.

The shelves are full of great gift ideas for Christmas, whether you’re buying for others or treating yourself! Books about the city, its monuments and the surrounding region, comics for children, jewellery made in Anjou, local wines and liqueurs from Angers, delicacies and other sweet treats 100% made in Angers… you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to treating your loved ones!

To be sure to satisfy the taste buds of your friends and family, especially at Christmas, consider our Christmas gift box. A colourful box reflecting the destination and filled with products selected specifically for the festive season. A perfect blend of local gastronomy and souvenirs, available in an alcoholic* and a non-alcoholic version.

Another, even more personalised idea: create your own gift box. Depending on your preferences and budget, add the products you want from the Tourist Office shop, such as Quernons d’Ardoise, a box of Caramandes, Giffard syrups, a bottle of Cointreau, cosmetics, T-shirts… there’s no shortage of gift ideas! You can choose between a small or large box.

New products not to be missed this year!

And timeless pieces that will always make a difference

Caramandes biscuits and crackers are coming to the Tourist Office table for Christmas. Les Délices de Flo has concocted a special Christmas jam: pineapple, banana and passion fruit. Yum! Fancy a sweet treat to finish off your meal? You’ll love the Cointreau truffles, as well as Ludivine Gaillard’s fruit jellies and three-chocolate fritters. Lots of other sweet and savoury new products are available in the shop, so come and discover them!

For decoration enthusiasts, the slate single-flower vases made by the Slate Museum or the Botel  scented candles are the perfect gifts, made right here in the local area. Discover them at the Tourist Office shop.

Other new items arrived in the shop in 2025 and are available all year round. These include earrings by NP Carto and gifts for little ones, such as the book Ernest le Combi et le Père Noël.

If one of your loved ones loves playing shuffleboard, we have just what you need. The Anjou shuffleboard, made from 100% leather by Koga Maroquinerie! An indoor game where you set your own rules, inspired by the famous Breton or Vendée shuffleboards, for example. Take it with you wherever you go, play wherever you want, it’s simple and quiet. An original Christmas gift, don’t you think?

And for young players or Monopoly addicts, get the special Angers edition! It’s a chance to (re)discover the city. Be the first to buy Lac de Maine, Saint-Maurice Cathedral or Jardin du Mail.

If you want to support the work of artisan creators, we present La boutique du rêveur. These are miniature bird figurines made by Bonnie, a lover of birds and nature. An invitation to the poetry and delicacy of such fragile nature.

The choice is yours!

Give a gift that is 100% of Angers by offering the Angers City Pass to a friend, uncle or grandmother who loves heritage. Depending on the length of stay and preferences, offer the most suitable Angers City Pass: 24 hours, 48 hours or 72 hours and get access to selected sites at reduced rates.

Once you have your pass, you can enjoy guided tours with Destination Angers, a tasting at the Maison des Vins d’Anjou et de Saumur, a tour of the city centre on the tourist train, and entry to many tourist sites open during this period.
If you plan to make several visits and travel around, the Angers City Pass is ideal and offers real savings.

Ideas at low prices

There’s no need to break the bank either – we have affordable gifts that you and yours are bound to love. With the illustrated Angers souvenir range, you have a choice of attractive brightly coloured gifts at great prices.

Make a friend happy with the bicycle bell, a brother inspired by good words with the notebook, a lover of escapades with the water bottle and also discover the key ring and the tote-bag! Most of the products can be chosen from 4 visuals based on heritage, nature or vineyards.
