About Vieux-Port de La Rochelle

Historic Architecture, Architecture, Interesting Places, Other Buildings And Structures

Le Vieux-Port est le plus ancien port de La Rochelle et le cœur historique de cette ville de Charente-Maritime (Nouvelle-Aquitaine). La tour de la chaîne et la tour Saint-Nicolas gardent l'entrée de ce port médiéval.

C'est grâce à ce port que La Rochelle prit de l'importance durant la Guerre de Cent Ans, puis avec la découverte de l'Amérique.

Aux XVII^e et XVIII^e siècles, le Vieux-Port de La Rochelle a drainé plus de la moitié du trafic colonial vers la Nouvelle-France, ce qui en fait aujourd'hui un lieu de pèlerinage pour de nombreux touristes.
