Join us on Saturday September 16, 2023 at 8:30pm at the Mus\u00e9e de la Marine, for a performance of “Peuple de la nuit” by Aida Azfharzadeh, a play that won the Moli\u00e8re 2023 award for best playwright. <\/p>\n\n

On Sunday, September 17, 2023, at 7:30pm, at La Mare aux F\u00e9es<\/strong>, we’ll be reading “Chambre”, a text by writer Philippe Minyana, which captures the raw words of people who have been excluded from society.<\/p>\n\n

Visit one of Saint-Brevin-les-Pins’ remarkable villas<\/h2>\n\n

Who hasn’t dreamed of discovering the interior of one of the magnificent old villas dotting the Pays de Retz<\/strong> coastline? The owners of Villa Duchesse<\/strong> Anne are opening their doors for the Journ\u00e9es du Patrimoine. Interior and exterior tours will focus on the work of sculptor Georges Barreau, who designed this early 20th-century villa, as well as the life of the duchess and queen who gave it her name. Reservations for the tour can be made at the Saint-Br\u00e9vin<\/strong> Tourist Office, by telephone on 02 40 27 24 32 or online via the form at this link<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n

Visit the Saint-Louis chapel<\/h2>\n\n
