Attività principali
You will work for eight 6-hour mornings on the restoration of a new section of the interior of the Redoubt. Your tasks will include biological cleaning (removing vegetation from the façade and parapets), followed by repointing with traditional lime mortar. Other specialized masonry tasks are planned, such as restoring stone coping and practicing stone cutting. In addition, you will take part in workshops raising awareness of interculturality and sustainable development. No previous experience is required- local technical leaders will guide you through these traditional techniques.

Organizzatore
In an idyllic setting with a breathtaking view of the iconic Fort Boyard, this workcamp invites you to take part in the consolidation of an exceptional historic site: the Redoute de l’Aiguille, recognized as the largest redoubt in France. Far more than a heritage preservation project, this stay will be a powerful human experience, combining intercultural exchanges and a shared commitment to peacebuilding alongside local residents. At the mouth of the Charente River, the Fouras peninsula unfolds its three harbors and five beaches facing the Atlantic Ocean, offering a privileged natural environment where sea, nature, and history meet in harmony. The municipality of Fouras-les-Bains and the association Maison des Bateleurs – Solidarités Jeunesses are renewing their partnership to continue the restoration of this remarkable monument in a spirit of solidarity and collective action.
