Mascarons: our hidden thread through the city
Bordeaux is home to around 3,000 mascarons, intricately carved faces and figures that adorn its buildings. But these aren’t just decorative details. They reveal secrets and stories you won’t find in any guidebook.
We’ve handpicked the most beautiful and intriguing mascarons in Bordeaux’s historic center and can’t wait to share their meanings with you.
