Moulins is located in the Allier department of the Auvergne, north of Vichy.
The town has an interesting historical centre, based around the cathedral Notre-Dame et Sacre-Coeur - the cathedral particularly has notable stained glass windows and impressive belltowers, and an exuberant 15th century interior.
Elsewhere don't miss the Pavillon de Beaujeu and its museum, a tribute to the splendours that filled the area when the rich Dukes of Burgundy played such an important role; the mausoleum of the Duke of Montmorency (in the Chapel of the Ancient Convent); the belltower known as jacquemart and was originally part of the defenses of the town; and the 18th century bridge, the Pont Régemortes.
There is also a highly regarded and renowned brasserie, the 'Grand Café', which you should find time to visit!
Moulins has been classified as a 'town of art and history' in France.
