Presentation of: MAISON DU MAITRE DE DIGUES

The Maison du Maître de Digues is an emblematic site in the Marais Poitevin: it was here, in the 17th century, that water management was organised.

The Marais Poitevin is more than just Green Venice! Explore the Marais Poitevin like never before!
Discover the role of the dykes, the picturesque landscapes and life in the 19th century. Visit in all weathers and keep the kids entertained with our paper booklet game or the interactive Baludik formula.
