Librairie Mollat

If your time in Bordeaux does not include a visit to Mollat, you have surely missed something! With 15 different departments on some 2,700 m² of floor space and a knowledgeable sales staff of 50 to advise you, this is the largest independently-owned book shop in France.
Located in the heart of Bordeaux (in fact, in the building housing Montesquieu's last abode), visits to Mollat are a must for keeping abreast of what's happening on the cultural scene or if you love literature. There are departments specialising in children's books, comic books, travel, science, etc. Book lovers can spend hours here...
