Maison des paludiers
Presentation
Immerse yourself in the world of the salt marshes with an immersive guided tour through the heart of the village of Saillé and discover a local expertise that is emblematic of the Guérande Peninsula.
Learn about the formation and morphology of the salt marshes through a projection on a model before strolling through the streets of the typical village of Saillé with its distinctive architecture.
Then observe the marsh landscape and follow the flow of water from basin to basin to understand the salt harvest and the expertise of the salt workers.
In case of rain...
When it rains, the salt marshes are inaccessible. Never mind, the Maison des Paludiers lets you discover the salt marshes from the comfort of indoors, thanks to educational displays.
To find out more, watch a film (available in German, English and Spanish) in which the salt workers talk about their work throughout the four seasons.
