Plan your journey from La Rochelle Train Station

The most iconic area of La Rochelle is its harbour and old town. Many of the city’s prime sights are within easy reach from here, such as the three medieval towers that dominate the historic port’s skyline – impossible to miss. It was explorers from La Rochelle who sailed to Canada in the 17th century and founded the province of Quebec. A permanent exhibition about these settlers can be found in the Tour de la Chaine tower.

To learn more about the city’s intriguing past, visit the Maritime Museum. Its exhibits are displayed across three tall ships, making this a popular attraction for families. Another family-friendly sight is the aquarium. This state-of-the-art complex features a variety of sea life from the North Atlantic, including turtles, seahorses, stingrays and sharks. This is one of the largest aquariums in Europe.

Located on France’s desirable west coast, La Rochelle naturally offers a rich supply of quality seafood restaurants serving catch-of-the-day specials.
