Things to see and do
Château Fournier
Château Fournier is situated just beyond Place de Verdun. With its fairytale appearance, it was built in 1877.
Fort Boyard
Planned as early as the construction of the Rochefort arsenal in the 17th century, Fort Boyard would only rise above the waves with great difficulty, following a construction project fraught with setbacks – one that would span much of the 19th century.
Eglise de St Georges d'Oléron
The village of Saint-Georges is home to one of the oldest buildings on the Île d’Oléron: its beautiful Romanesque church, built in the 11th and 12th centuries. It has been listed as a historic monument since 1931.
Le village de Chaucre
In the north-western part of the commune, set slightly back from the coast, the village of Chaucre is one of those that strongly embody a certain Oléron identity. Of particular note is a bread oven dating from 1787.
Le village de Domino
This little village is one of the most authentic on the island of Oléron. Situated on the west coast, at the foot of a tall, wooded dune – the highest point on Oléron, from which it takes its name, meaning ‘towering above’, which has been shortened to Domino.
