Les Veillées de la Baudissière
Dates & opening times
Descriptif
A convivial atmosphere for these nocturnes at the Baudissière cabins! With musical entertainment, oyster tastings, ice-cream parlors and food-trucks.
Along the oyster route, the Port de La Baudissière site will delight artists at heart. Its picturesque charm is due to the small, colorful huts on the edges of the channels. Used for traditional oyster farming, they have long been abandoned as the industry has modernized.
To preserve the history of the site, the huts have been restored and now form an unusual group of shimmering, vibrantly colored huts in the heart of nature.
Today, they are a haven for local artists and craftsmen, who have turned them into their studios. Open to the public, a stroll through the cabanes d'artistes de la Baudissière guarantees a dreamlike stroll from one universe to another: paintings, lamps, textile creations, hats, mosaics, crockery, jewelry, sculpture...
Atypical, authentic, photogenic, they offer a little show to the curious who discover them, and allow you to apprehend in a different way a whole section of traditional local history.
