The European Heritage Days are back in 2021, September 18 and 19, under the theme " Heritage for all ". After another year marked by confinements, this is an opportunity for the French to discover or rediscover nearby places, and in particular to take advantage of natural spaces, rich in an unsuspected history.
Like every year, the Grand Site de la Dune du Pilat takes part in these days.
