Descripción:
Located at the mouth of the Charente river, the peninsula of Fouras-les-Bains is home to three harbours and five beaches. For its first workcamp, the municipality has contacted the association Solidarités Jeunesses to renovate a part of the Fort de l'Aiguille. This fort is a redoubt, a fortification system built by the French military engineer Vauban. The redoubt protected Fouras from a potential enemy sea invasion.
The restoration of a part of the fort's main facade will be done in three stages. You will help the technical leader to remove plants from the facade, and to remove and replace the chalk mortar joints between the stones. Other works of traditional masonry are planned, such as redoing the stone coping (top layer of the wall) and stone-cutting.

If you like the beach, seagulls and shells, you can spend every free minute enjoying them! You can also visit the Aix Island by boat, a small car-free island in the middle of the ocean. As it is a popular sea-side resort, June also provides the chance for participation in summer events like the Nuit des Carrelets and the local music festival.
