The Fort la Prée - Groups

It's the oldest military fort on the Ile de Ré!

Built in 1626 under the reign of Louis Xlll to consolidate royal power on the island of Ré against the Protestants of La Rochelle, it was occupied by the German army during the Second World War and even transformed into a vacation camp!
