Discover Fouras les Bains in 1900, and take a night-time stroll in the company of Henriette and Léopoldine for a trip back in time.
Fancy a trip back in time?
Get ready! Henriette and Léopoldine take the clock back to 1900 and invite you to rediscover Fouras les Bains.
Tasty dialogues where stories make history.
Life in 1900 is emerging, the railway has arrived, the line comes directly from Paris. Fouras was transformed before your very eyes from a fishing village into a seaside resort: Fouras les Bains.
The beautiful toilets of these ladies, who had come on holiday from Paris by train, rubbed shoulders with the knitted skins of the locals working in the oyster beds and occasionally at the Casino de Fouras les Bains.
A clash of cultures with a touch of mischief. The short stories give us a humorous and entertaining take on history.
A 1 hour 45 minute stroll through the streets of Fouras will reveal an aspect of the seaside town that even long-established Fouras locals are unaware of.
