Place de verdun La Rochelle
Sur cette place se trouve une partie des arcades où il y a plein de commerces et c’est le départ des bus
La place de Verdun est une place qui se trouve en face la cathédrale Saint Louis. Celle-ci est divisée en trois partis, une partie piétonne, une partie Bus et une partie parking. C’est un point stratégique pour prendre les bus et pour voir les étudiants qui vont manger sous les arcades. Cette place n’a rien d’extraordinaire hormis un pan ou se trouve les arcades

Places to see in ( La Rochelle - France )
La Rochelle is a coastal city in southwestern France and capital of the Charente-Maritime department. It's been a center for fishing and trade since the 12th century, a maritime tradition that's reflected in its Vieux Port (old harbor) and huge, modern Les Minimes marina. The old town has half-timbered medieval houses and Renaissance architecture, including passageways covered by 17th-century arches.
Known as La Ville Blanche (the White City), La Rochelle's luminous limestone façades glow in the bright coastal sunlight. One of France's foremost seaports from the 14th to 17th centuries, the city has arcaded walkways, half-timbered houses (protected from the salt air by slate tiles), ghoulish gargoyles and a fabulous collection of lighthouses – all rich reminders of its magnificent seafaring heritage. The early French settlers of Canada, including the founders of Montreal, set sail from here in the 17th century.
This 'white city' is also commendably green, with innovative public transport, open spaces and plenty of activities and attractions for families visiting with children. La Rochelle's late-20th-century district of Les Minimes was built on reclaimed land, and now has one of the largest marinas in the country. Unlike the Med with its motor cruisers, the 3500 moorings here are mostly used by yachts, which fill the harbour with billowing spinnakers.
The Old Port (Vieux Port) is the oldest and most picturesque part of La Rochelle, dominated by its defensive towers. If a party of enormous chess pieces came down to the seaside and got tipsy, they would resemble these 14th / 15th C towers. Tour de la Chaine and Tour St Nicholas lean over the narrow harbour entrance: a stout chain was raised between them to keep out trouble (often English). A rampart stretches west to Tour de la Lanterne, the former lighthouse.
Musée du Nouveau Monde (New World Museum) housed in the old Fleuriau Hotel, depicts La Rochelle's relationship with the Americas, especially Maritime Canada and the French Caribbean. Port des Minimes is one of the biggest pleasure boat marinas in Europe: mostly yachts not motorboats. Also, visit the nearby beach.
Musée Maritime (Maritime Museum), Place Bernard Moitessier and Aquarium de La Rochelle (La Rochelle Aquarium), Quai Louis Prunier (near railway station just south of old port). Île de Ré resort island is accessed along Route D735 via a 2 km long toll-bridge. The toll to get onto the island is €16 per car in summer and €8 in winter, free on foot or with a bike; there's no return toll. The road runs through La Flotte to the main settlement of St Martin de Ré, which has a charming port (UNESCO Heritage Site) fortified by Vauban. Most buses terminate here. The road straggles on for another 20 km to Les Portes-en-Ré.
Situated near the Old Port, you can buy fresh products every morning in the central covered Market. On Wednesday and Saturdays (and during most of the summer), you will see all of the streets surounding the main area covered in stands occupied by local farmers selling their products. You will find dozens of restaurants surrounding this hot spot, and from the market, you can go in direction of the Place de Verdun or the Old Port and will walk by the main shopping streets of La Rochelle. The sector of Les Minimes is where you will find most activities that are not specifically targeted to tourists, such as bowling, movie theaters, etc.

Places to see in ( La Rochelle - France ) Porte de la Grosse Horloge
Places to see in ( La Rochelle - France ) Porte de la Grosse Horloge
The Grosse Horloge de La Rochelle is an ancient city gate dating from the original enclosure called William X , no longer needed with the expansion of the city, it hosts a bell and a clock in 1478 and became the belfry of the town replacing the Mallevault gate. The door of the Grosse-Horloge is classified as a historical monument by decree of the December 13 , 1978.
The Grosse-Horloge was originally a gateway to the fortified city of La Rochelle , open in the original enclosure. The gate was built in the early xii th century during the construction of the first medieval walls. In the xiii th century his name was the door of the Parrot or Perrot because it gave access to the suburb of that name. The door was pierced by two bays. The widest, for trolleys, the smaller, for pedestrians. In 1478 , it was surmounted by an octagonal bell tower, topped by a campanile sheltering the bell of the clock. This upper part was very close to that of the Cailhau Gate (Except the central window).
In 1672 , the two bays are brought together in a single arcade, to facilitate circulation. In 1746 , the upper part of the building was demolished to make room for the current construction in the form of a Louis XV cartel flanked by scientific and military attributes.
Note that the ephemeral tram La Rochelle passed under the door of the big clock to reach the Place de Verdun. Today, it remains one of the main points of passage between the quays and the old town, but also for a few years housed an archaeological museum concerning the Templars of La Rochelle.

The Old Port is the oldest port of La Rochelle and the historic heart of this city of Charente-Maritime ( New Aquitaine ). The tower of the chain and the tower Saint Nicolas keep the entrance of this medieval port. It was thanks to this port that La Rochelle gained importance during the Hundred Years War , then with the discovery of America. In the xvii th and xviii th centuries, the Old Port of La Rochelle has attracted more than half of colonial trade to New France , which makes today a place of pilgrimage for many tourists.
The access channel to the Old Port is dredged to the coast -0.50 meter from the Richelieu Tower. It is at the Old Port of La Rochelle that the Marans Canal ends at La Rochelle. The primitive port of La Rochelle was located on the river Lafond, up to the castle Vauclair (currently Place de Verdun). This port was quickly saturated and victim of its defects (low draft, access and difficult maneuver, siltation), it no longer responded to the increase in capacity of ships and cargo (wine and salt). The port entrance was defended by the lantern tower
During the surrender of the city, following the episode of the great siege , Louis XIII ordered the demolition of all the fortifications except the seafront. In April 1689, La Rochelle , stripped of its fortifications on the ground, is vulnerable to an attack from the enemies that King Louis XIV had leagued against him. To avoid danger, the King's council, undoubtedly under the influence of Louvois, finds no better remedy than to shave La Rochelle and fill his port. Fortunately for the city, the Marshal de Lorges , to whom the king had entrusted the command of the coasts between the Loire and the Garonne, seconded by François Ferry , general engineer of the provinces between the Loire and the Pyrenees, protested against this wild project, in pledging to put La Rochelle in a state of defense in a short time and without major expenses.
The old port has twice hosted an extreme diving competition. The event brought together more than 40,000 spectators at the foot of the building in 2009. The competition consists of diving from the Saint-Nicolas tower. From 1778, under the direction of engineers Leclerc and Lescure de Bellerive, was undertaken the digging of the basin afloat, in the stirrup called Petite-Rive. Its commissioning will be done in 1808.
During the xix th century, the harbor is occupied by the fleet of fishing boats and the inner basin by small coasters. The old port becoming too small to accommodate merchant ships, it was decided in 1862 to dig the outer basin , whose location is beyond the fortifications. In the shape of an inverted L, this port has direct access to the Rompsay Canal and the rail network . A lock gate provides high tide access to the channel and a swing bridge allows communication between Gabut and the wooden town.
The lifting bridge of the Gabut or Sherzer Bridge , named after the engineer who designed it is a structure of type tilting / rolling lift . In 1935, it was decided to replace the swing bridge by a lift bridge. The lift bridge pivots like a drawbridge on a transverse axis. At the rear of this axis, two toothed arches are connected to huge counterweights and lift the fly rolling on their rack. Built for the port of Marseille in 1927 by the company Fivellile, the book is transported to La Rochelle by the sea in 1936, before being reassembled. The movable metal structure, once lifted, allows to release a passage of 16.50 m.
