Fort Liédot, nestled in the heart of the forest on the island of Aix, is a bastion of French history. Originally designed to be an impregnable fortress on the orders of Napoleon I, it was built between 1810 and 1834 and served many functions over the years, from coastal defense to political prison. Today, it is a place of memory and discovery, open to visitors who can explore its galleries and learn more about its fascinating past. With guided tours available, it's an invitation to travel through time to a place where art and history meet.

Overlooking the Grande Plage of Fouras-les-Bains, you cannot miss this gigantic structure: Fort Vauban. From the 11th century, the castellany of Fouras owed its growth to the taxes that the lords of Rochefort levied on boats using the Charente. In the 15th century, in place of the castle, destroyed during the War of Religion, a 30 meter high keep was built to monitor the sea from the top of its terrace. It was during the construction of the Rochefort Arsenal that the keep became the fort we know today. It then becomes a centerpiece of the defense system of the approaches to the Charente in order to prevent entry towards Rochefort.

Fort Fouras was actually built on the site of a Roman castle. Its purpose is to defend the mouth of the river against invasions. It was in service and actively occupied and used until 1927.

In February 1787, Marie Louise Henriette married a young officer, Étienne-Pierre de Montbron: the current owners of this castle are their direct descendants.

Built by order of Napoleon I, it began to be built in 1810 and construction took 24 years. It is built on the highest point of the island, just 9 meters above sea level. It was initially intended for defense but was also used as a prison and as a holiday camp for soldiers of the French army. The stone used to build the fort came from quarries in the town of Crazannes.
