The commune takes its name from its Latin name, Blacciacum. A Gallo-Roman settlement is attested by the discovery of the remains of three Gallo-Roman villas, dating from the 1st to the 5th century AD. These remains were found near the current site of the church, not far from the Gironde. During the medieval period, the village's center of activity seems to have shifted to the heights overlooking the river. This is evidenced in particular by a hoard of Merovingian coins discovered around 1850 at a place called Montuzet (Mont des Yeuses). The lower Plassac region, around the port, was heavily involved in river and maritime activity in the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. Merchants and ocean-going captains settled in beautiful stone residences. This river activity gradually declined in the 20th century.

Construction of the Saint-Paulin church began in 1849. It was initially just a chapel linked to the Saint-Pierre de Bassens parish church. It became a parish church in 1852, one year before the creation of the commune of Carbon-Blanc. The bell tower was designed by Pierre Labbé: begun in 1848, it was completed with a spire in 1852. The transept and sacristies were built in 1864. The church has magnificent stained-glass windows installed gradually between 1867 and 1890 in the choir, the nave and the gallery, and finally the baptismal font. It is remarkable and quite rare that the works of three generations of master glassmakers (Thibaud, Villiet and Dagrand) are exhibited in the same church. The latter was restored in 1993.

Bordeaux's must-see is here. Stunning architecture and an extraordinary permanent exhibition. You'll learn everything about wine from here and elsewhere, from today to Antiquity. And you'll finish with a glass of wine on the 8th floor with a panoramic view of Bordeaux.

The linguistic proximity of the "Pont Eiffel", which spans the Dordogne River here, and the low mountain range "Eifel" in the far west of Germany is no coincidence: The family of the designer - whose world-famous Tower of Paris (named after its builder) is probably known to everyone - has German roots. The ancestors of the Eiffel Tower builder Gustave EIFFEL come from the Eifel town of Marmagen (in the Euskirchen district, North Rhine-Westphalia). The village square there - if you are interested, see the following hiking highlight https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/1830307 - is named after him.
