2025 Pau Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

#museums On our way to Oloron Sainte Marie, we made a night's stop in Pau. The national museum and Chateau de pau are the most iconic of structures in Pau. They date back to the 12th century and have a rich history associated with them over the years. Especially the childhood of Henry the IV. It was his birthplace, and he is credited to be the founder of Bourbon. The castle complex is huge and there is plenty to see. Even after the destruction during the French revolution, a lot of artefacts and furniture survived. Those are also on display. It even has several well kept gardens. Not to forget, there is ample parking space if you are driving. This is a place where you absolutely need a guide to be able to appreciate the history. There are signs in english but the experience of doing it on your own doesn't compare with the rich insights you'd get about this place from a guide. If you do make a stop in Pau, this museum and Chateau are not to be missed. #museums #chateau #myhiddengems #pau #summerdestinations #France #100waysoftravel

Free parking - friendly receptionist - great self catering facilities - ideal stop over for trip to Pyrenees.

Pau is a very beautiful and interesting city, I met a lot of interesting people here, I had a lot of fun, I recommend everyone who hasn't been to Pau to definitely visit this small and full of love city.Here you will get many new experiences. Now, loaded with emotions, mentally exhausted from having fun and spending time, I decided to return home. I say goodbye to my new friend.
