A very beautiful old church. Concerts (choirs, orchestras) sometimes take place in the evenings, which are highly recommended.

Very beautiful Romanesque church and small port.

Exceptional view, the most beautiful village in France.

Sometimes the church is open.

From the height of the coastal plateau the view reaches to the Gironde estuary, and the white cliffs of Pilou, with the tradition fishing huts on stilts (carelets).

A small town lying along the Gironde estuary, between Barzan and Mortagne-sur-Gironde, it is above all famous for its fishing port, which was the "French capital of caviar" for much of the 20th century: in the mid-1950s, between three and five tonnes of this luxury commodity were still being produced, exported worldwide. However, sturgeon fishing was banned in 1982 to protect the species; now, "Gironde caviar" is obtained from aquaculture farms: nearly twelve tonnes of caviar are produced each year in the region. At the gateway to the great marshes on the north bank of the Gironde, it is now a tourist and agricultural town.

I suspect that most people simply drive past this Christian site, first mentioned around 1050 AD, later buried by a sand dune and later re-excavated. The church's age is partially apparent, especially from the inside. And pilgrims can also get a stamp here.

Beautiful place, colorful houses, great beach
