The Salorge de la Guittière, located in the commune of Talmont-Saint-Hilaire, is a former salt storage building dating from 1956, bearing witness to the once flourishing salt-making activity in the Talmondais salt marshes. This emblematic site, initially used by a salt-workers' cooperative, has had several uses, including as a granary and then a summer chapel. Decommissioned in the 1960s, it was rehabilitated to become an exhibition and activity space on biodiversity and the history of salt marshes. In 2024-2025, it underwent a reconstruction respectful of its traditional architecture and serves as an exhibition space.
