THE ESSENTIALS
in Andernos-les-bains
Your visit to the municipality of Andernos lesBains promises to be very busy. Here are some places to visit that will undoubtedly enchant you.
The Pier
It is the longest pier in France which extends 232 m into the waters of the Arcachon Bay. It was built in 1926. It was later renovated and a nautical stop was established there. It has therefore become an essential passage for boats venturing around. It is the ideal place to have a magnificent overview of this famous lagoon which plunges into the sea.
St Eloi Church
This 11th century Romanesque church is the oldest religious building in the Arcachon Bay. It tells the story and origins of this popular destination. Admire its murals and its curious inverted bell tower. Perfectly maintained, this historic monument is to visit absolutely with family.
Gallo-Roman remains
These vestiges discovered at the beginning of the XXth century by accident have since become a protected place. They have inspired the architecture of Aquitaine villas for a long time. Unfortunately, a large part was swept away by the sea, but what remains of it largely evokes the history of these impressive vestiges.
Louis David House
Built in 1908, this former residence, a priori intended for the mayor of the time, perfectly represents the characteristics of seaside architecture. This house has welcomed the most important personalities passing through the region. Today, this house which belongs to the municipality is the main museum of the city.
ANDERNOS-LES-BAINS IS A RESORT PULLED BY CULTURAL EVENTS OF ALL KINDS AND ARTISTIC EXHIBITIONS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
