very pretty setting to rest after the effort with the small stream

The heart of the Marais Poitevin and the Green Venice

Starting point for flat-bottomed boat tours. It's somewhat reminiscent of Taubergießen.

Long before the discovery of electricity and the associated inventions, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements—which, while useful on the one hand, could also be a threat as a force of nature—for various purposes. A fitting example of the human inventiveness of earlier generations is such a mill: The heavy millstones used to grind grain or press oil, for example, could be powered by water or—as in this case—the wind. Hardly any of them still fulfill their original functions today, but fortunately, some have at least survived as testimonies to ancient times.

The Jean Guilloux chain ferry allows you to cross the Sèvre Niortaise River from Saint Jean de Liversay (Charente-Maritime) to Vix (Vendée). It is free to access and is operated manually. The chain ferry can be used independently by pedestrians and cycle tourists, with a maximum of 6 people per crossing. Cyclists' bicycles may be taken on board the ferry. Operating and safety regulations are posted on each bank. This type of boat was once a common means of crossing canals and channels in the Marais Poitevin. Free access is limited to 6 people or a maximum weight of 450 kg. Pets are allowed. Accessibility dates are from April 5 to October 31, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. The acquisition of the "Jean Guilloux" chain ferry was made possible thanks in part to the support of the European Union.

To cross here, take a bike ride or walk. Grab the chain and pull, this way you will be on the opposite bank.
