For example, the "fort Boyard".
It
is a fortification located between the "île d’Aix"
and "île d’Oléron". It was built in
the 17th century. It is 61 meters long, 31 meters wide, and its
walls are 20 meters high.
Under the Commune, the fort was converted into a prison, before
being abandoned a few years later.
Since 1990, Fort Boyard has been used as the location for a television
game show of the same name.
We can’t visit it but we can pass around with a boat.
