Visits of Rochefort and its Royal rope factory with the construction site of the Hermione (The boat of La Fayette)
The entire history of Rochefort is integrally linked with that of its arsenal, which was created by Colbert in the 17th century.
During the epoch, that was the departure point for major expeditions.
And it was likewise the place where hundreds of vessels of the royal marine came into being.
Once the arsenal was shut down in 1927, Rochefort reasserted its identity by rehabilitating its overall seaside patrimony.
Cognac home of the famous Brandy is built on the Charente river, the old town contains many unusual buildings and dates back to around the 15th century.
